Spanish term

sensaciones y percepciones (sobre el concepto de innovación)

Spanish to English Social Sciences Business/Commerce (general)
Hola!!! Para un pequeño "abstract" sobre innovación en los gobiernos locales, tengo el siguiente contexto:

"... los funcionarios de los gobiernos locales, más que asociar la innovación con algo concreto, la entienden como una suerte de percepciones y sensaciones".

Casi al final se indica también:

"Queda por evaluar qué tanta influencia tienen las sensaciones y percepciones de los empleados del gobierno local en la innovación objetiva, como tal, precisamente en lo referente a su existencia o ausencia".

Les agradezco mucho todos los aportes que me puedan brindar.

Buen día para todos.

Hellen

Discussion

Sp-EnTranslator Aug 3, 2009:
Un poco de una y de la otra En mi opinion, la respuesta esta en la "fusion" de las dos sugerencias hasta ahora ofrecidas, es decir, un poco de una y de otra. Sensaciones entendido como "feelings" y percepciones entendido tal cual y literalmente, y que en definitiva se trata de que ambos elementos son subjetivos y no palpables.

perceptions (leave out sensaciones)

Both words mean the same thing, so I'd leave one out.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "He estado leyendo textos sobre "innovación" desde el sábado. He visto "percepciones" pero no "sensaciones" (o similares) todavía. Para este caso en particular, elijo esta opción. Muchísimas gracias a todos!!! "

Spanish term (edited): percepciones y sensaciones

perception or impression

Creo que las dos palabras se emplean como sinónimos, de ahí que use "or" en inglés.

... some kind of perception or impresion

Dicho lo cual, confieso que sigo sin entender qué quiere decir exactamente el autor del texto en español.

or, given that it's a business context, why not just "feedback"?
Peer comment(s):

agree Ruth Ramsey : Yes, feedback is good. Perhaps "views" instead of "feelings".

Thanks, Multitran:This is one case where the literal seems to suffice. Saludos; eski

views and perceptions

"Sensations and perceptions", the literal translation of the phrase, are terms more often encountered in psychology and related sciences. It does not fit in this context.
If I may presume that the writer made a catachrestic slip, I would from the context that can be inferred from the passage, prefer that the translation be "views and perceptions" - a standard phrase with respect to individual reactions to objective phenomena such as innovations.
