The process of detecting physical stimuli from the environment and converting them into neural signals.

The process of selecting and focusing on specific stimuli while ignoring others.

The process of organizing, interpreting, and giving meaning to sensory information, which helps us understand the world.

The process of acquiring, storing, using, and transmitting knowledge about the world.

Any physical event that can affect our senses and trigger a response.

Sensory receptors located inside the body, needing devices to detect.

The world surrounding us, containing objects and events.

Sensory receptors on the body's surface, like eyes and ears.

Specialized organs that collect information from the environment and our bodies.

Another name for sense organs, they receive and gather information.

Knowledge gained through our sense organs about the world around us.

The perfect strength of a stimulus needed for our senses to notice it.

Humans can only sense stimuli within specific limits, not too weak or too strong.

Eyes, ears, nose, tongue, and skin.

Touch, warmth, cold, and pain.

The individual who is actively experiencing and making sense of the information they are receiving from their senses. They are not simply passive recipients of stimuli.

The process of constructing and understanding the world around us through our unique experiences, thoughts, and perspectives. It's how we make sense of events and objects based on our own background.

The process of building our own interpretations of events based on our own experiences, memories, and biases, rather than simply taking in raw sensory information.

Perception is not a passive act of simply receiving information. It is an active process involving our minds and experiences, making it a continuous loop of understanding.

Perception involves several processes working together – recognizing stimuli, interpreting information, and understanding the world. These processes are interconnected, forming a holistic experience.

Children with ADHD often struggle with learning due to difficulties focusing and controlling their impulses. This can make learning feel overwhelming and frustrating.
