Point of clarity - P.O.C:
This is the point during any questioning when definitive answer is reached. By definitive this means that no outside influences affect the answer.
Example:
What colour is water?
Someone looking at the sea on a sunny day would answer blue. Someone looking at the sea on a cloudy day would say grey. Someone looking at a muddy river would say brown, someone looking at a glass of water would say clear.
So the P.O.C is that water reflects the colour of its surrounds or is coloured by material inside it. It can look blue, grey, green, brown or clear, yet that is not the colour of water.
The point of clarity can seem not so clear!
So what influences affect an answer? This could be an emotional response to the question.
Example:
Do you like classical music?
One possible influence is that people who listen to specific genre's of music that are more mainstream, might answer that they don't like it, because of how they feel they will be perceived by their peers. The other possible influence is that they perceive classical music to be outside of their scope of enjoyment of their age/peer group etc, so would answer no. The answer can also be influenced by the emotional response to the questioner.
So the point of clarity is actually that the person who is answering might not know as they have not listened seriously to the music and/or their surrounds influence their answer.
Once again the point of clarity is not so clear.
However the TRUTH is that what is perceived by the person answering is the truth according to that person. The water is blue/green/grey or clear. Classical music does suck, is for old people, or is magnificent etc. It is their truth. |
