Our perceptions are based on how we interpret different sensations. The perceptual process begins with receiving stimuli from the environment and ends with our interpretation of those stimuli. ... When we attend to or select one specific thing in our environment, it becomes the attended stimulus.
How is perception formed?
The process of perception begins with an object in the real world, known as the distal stimulus or distal object. By means of light, sound, or another physical process, the object stimulates the body's sensory organs. These sensory organs transform the input energy into neural activity—a process called transduction.
How our brains organize our perceptions?
Organization of stimuli happens by way of neural processes; this starts with our sensory receptors (touch, taste, smell, sight, and hearing), and is transmitted to our brains, where we organize the information we receive.
