How  do we perceive reality?

For humans to have an understanding of information processed within our anatomy scientists have turned to computer processing systems (Shannon & Weaver, 1963).   After WWII, building upon computational theory of mind scientists theorized cognitive psychology.

Perception is the process of acquiring, interpreting, and understanding sensory information. It is a complex process that involves many cognitive and neural processes.   The way we perceive reality is a result of our senses. Our senses are the only way we can know what is happening in the world around us.

Implicit interoceptive perception is the process of perceiving one's own body and its sensations. It is a form of self-awareness that is not consciousness, but rather subconscious.  —

The term "interoception" was coined by Sir Charles S. Sherrington in 1906 to describe the process of sensing and interpreting stimuli arising from within the body.  Describe properly as the visceral receptive the exteroceptive or the proprioception used to describe: smell, odor or olfactory sound or auditory touch or tactile  light or visual   temperature   nociception.   latin nocere "to harm or hurt"

The word "implicit" was added to the term in 1990 by American psychologist Ronald Melzack to denote that this type of perception does not require conscious awareness or attention/focus .

The term "interoceptive" is derived from the Latin word "interior" which means "within." It is a term that refers to the perception of sensations that originate from within the body.

Explicit Interoceptive Perception (EIP) is a new concept in psychology and neuroscience. It refers to the conscious awareness of bodily sensations, such as heart rate, breathing, and stomach contractions.

Perception is the process by which individuals and societies make sense of the world. It is a complex process that involves many cognitive functions, such as:  attention Salience Valence memory  language

Information processing   Absorbing data bits manipulate to our advantage Combining idea to make fresh; new; unique; helpful ones Encoding information for storing through classification  Pulling from memory through retrieval remembering ( "Definition of information processing".

What is the role of the executive system in perception?

The executive system is located in the frontal lobe of the brain and includes regions such as the: prefrontal cortex (PFC) anterior cingulate cortex (ACC)  dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC).

What is the role of memory in perception?

Memory is the ability to store and recall information. Memory can be either short-term or long-term. Short-term memory lasts for a few seconds, while long-term memory lasts for days, months, or even years. Atkinson-Shiffrin memory model also called the multi-store model memories will only be stored in memory with completion of 3 processes: sensory memory short-term memory  long-term memory (Atkinson, R.C.; Shiffrin, R.M. (1968). "Human memory: A proposed system and its control processes". The Psychology of Learning and Motivation. New York: Academic Press. pp. 89–195.)
