Etymology

The term 'perceptional' is derived from the word 'perception,' which comes from the Latin verb 'percipere,' meaning 'to seize, grasp, or understand.' The prefix 'per-' translates to 'through' or 'fully,' while 'capere' means 'to take.' The formation of the word began taking shape in the early 19th century as the study of human awareness and sensory experience gained traction in philosophical and psychological discourse. As various disciplines such as psychology, philosophy, and cognitive science evolved, so did the understanding and application of the term, leading to its use in describing processes and abilities related to sensory perception in contemporary contexts.
