In sensation, the transforming of stimulus energies into neural impulses analysis that begins with the sense receptors and works up to the brain's integration of sensory information diminished sensitivity as a consequence of constant stimulation the minimum stimulation needed to detect a particular stimulus 50 percent of the time information processing guided by higher-level mental process, as when we construct perceptions drawing out our experience and expectation the process of organizing and interpreting sensory information; enabling us to recognize meaningful objects and events the processing of several aspects of a problem simultaneously; the brain's natural mode of information processing for many functions, including vision. Contrast with the step-by-step (serial) processing of most computers and of conscious problem solving the principle that, to be perceived as different, two stimuli must differ by a constant minimum percentage (rather than a constant amount)
