Detailed explanation-1: -Perceptual judgements are, by nature, a product both of sensation and the cognitive processes responsible for interpreting and reporting subjective experiences. Changed perceptual judgements may thus result from changes in how the world appears (perception), or subsequent interpretation (judgement).
Detailed explanation-2: -When you see a ripe lemon in a supermarket, it seems eminently reasonable for you to believe that a lemon is there. Here you have a perceptual experience since you consciously see something yellow.
Detailed explanation-3: -The retrieval of this stored data creates perceptions in the mind of the individual recalling the data. Here is an example; A person once attacked by a dog may first perceive that every dog is a bad dog. However, we know this statement is false.
Detailed explanation-4: -In principle, any perceptual scene allows for a multitude of figure/background possibilities, of which those with the relevant experience perceive only a few. On the other hand, lack of experience leads to an open-ended array of possibilities such as the one faced by the novice who “could look but could not see”.
