Three Level of processing.
1. Visceral level.
The most immediate level of processing.
Here the human reacts to audio, visual and other aspects of a product before experiencing it.
The look and feel of the product dominates the user in this level.
Visceral design often corresponds to creating an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
2] Behavioral level.
The middle level of processing.
The emotional brain takes control of the decision making.
We react to the products at a deeper level than that of visceral.
This level manages simple, everyday actions. here functionality of the product takes prime importance.
In behavioral design, semantics and usability practices are primarily addressed.
3] Reflective level.
The last level of processing.
A careful analysis and reflection of all the incidents or experiences is made. the meaning of an experience is stored in our brain.
Reflective design can tell us about customers inclination towards various ranges of products.
Seven stages of actions

Perceive : In this the visceral layer takes care of various audio and visual aspects.
Reflect : In this behavioral level reacts to their perceptions with an emotion, we reflect ourselves with particular aspect emotionally.
Compare : In this, the reflective level gives a meet to the entire experience, by comparing it with the goals.
Interrelation of level of processing and stages of action:
At the reflective level, a need is identified which becomes our goal,
Analyzing our past experiences a future requirements, we make a plan to achieve this goal, then based on our mood, likes and dislikes we choose a method to execute that plan.
The behavioral level is responsible for this action.
Most of the time our decisions are affected by our emotions.
This level has the strongest influence over the human being.
At the visceral level, we actually perform specific method.
All the physical aspects of performing the tasks are considered.
Our sense of vision, hearing, smell, touch and taste are used to perceive the action being performed.
These perceptions are then interpreted and given a meaning by the behavioral level again.
Finally, the reflective level analyses our experiences and compare it with the initial goal.
