please help to clarify the use of "perception"

0Hi everyone,02br
02br
00As I look up in the Oxford dictionary, "perception" means "way of seeing or understanding something". However, I am still confused about the possible situations in which I can use this word. Can you please clarify this?02br
02br
00Moreover, is it right if I make a sentence like "00A person with a critical habit of thinking does not judge a matter in his own perception but considers all the concerned aspects based on convincing evidence.00"? Please help me to correct it!02br
02br
00Thanks a lot!0-

0"Perception" literally means the act of perceiving something (i.e. becoming aware of something) through the senses. Usually, though, "perception" refers to the way that the brain interprets the information it receives -- in other words, "how it seems to you". Examples: "The perception of colour is subjective"; "Our perception of loudness is a logarithmic function of sound wave amplitude".02b
