In psychology, conception refers to the initial formation of an idea, belief, or understanding in the mind. It involves the process of perceiving, interpreting, and organizing sensory information to create a mental representation of an object, event, or concept.
Conception may be appreciated in relation to how individuals acquire, process, and store information, as well as how they use this information to make sense of the world around them.
Conception can also refer to the formation of a hypothesis or theory based on available evidence or experiences.
