Perception is the sensory experience of the world <ref name="ref1"/>, the process and the subjective result of obtaining and processing information from stimuli originated in the environment and the self. An object or situation may be perceived differently by multiple individuals. Everyone is limited to their own perception. Perception is shaped through internal and external factors, such as ones beliefs, knowledge, experiences and sensing structures. Personal circumstances can also affect one's perception. What we perceive is not an accurate depiction of the externally existing world. One's perception of reality is one's brains perception. Personal stories reflective of master narratives you were born into hailed by ideology <ref name="ref2"/> may also take effect. | Perception is the sensory experience of the world <ref name="ref1"/>, the process and the subjective result of obtaining and processing information from stimuli originated in the environment and the self.

===Introduction=== | |||
Perception entails our diverse modalities of vision, touch, hearing, taste, and smell into an experience of the external world. Yet this experience is far from a direct reflection of reality. Individual perception is filtered by biological mechanisms, personal beliefs, and cultural contexts. As neuroscientific research shows, external stimuli are transformed into meaningful patterns. For this reason, philosophical approaches question how these patterns relate to any objective reality. Furthermore, we highlight the inherent subjectivity of perception by acknowledging that personal factors ranging from emotional states to social narratives shape the way we interpret stimuli. Consequently, examining both the neuroscience of sensation and the philosophical implications of our perceptual construction of the world, it broadens our understanding of implicit and explicit frameworks of reality. | |||
