Perception, Perception

Perception, or perception, is a mental process during which the analysis and comprehension of information about the world around us, received through the senses, occurs.

Perception is a complex cognitive process that includes not only sensory stimulation, but also attention, memory, thinking and other mental functions. Thanks to perception, holistic images of the surrounding world are formed.

Perceptual disturbances include phenomena such as hallucinations (the perception of non-existent stimuli), illusions (distorted perceptions of actually existing stimuli) and agnosia (the inability to recognize visual, auditory or other stimuli). The study of perception processes and its disorders is of great importance for understanding the functioning of the brain and consciousness.

**Perception and perception in psychology**

Perception in psychology is a subjectively experienced reality, which is created in the human mind on the basis of holistic information received from the outside world through the senses. As a result of this process, awareness, analysis and evaluation of the received data occur, which form a person’s understanding of the surrounding space.

According to the theory of perception of the German scientist G. M. Leibniz, information is perceived by a person in the form of an idea, then translated into consciousness, undergoes comprehension and analysis. It does not exist by itself, but arises only after external objects have made a certain impact on our mind.

Perception is a mental act accompanied by a sensory reflection of objects or phenomena of the material world, existing along with thinking, memory and imagination. Perception is never given as an initially completed formation; on the contrary, it is formed during the process itself.
