Preferred term

embodied perception  

Definition

  • Embodied perception refers to a conglomerate of theoretical claims postulating that the body, its movements, and the interaction with the environment fundamentally shape people's perception of the world. All these claims have in common that they criticize “disembodied” notions of perception that are characteristic of the information-processing approach.
