Understanding Neurodiversity and Perception Differences

Perception differences can be significant, as highlighted by the example of the dress, indicating that individuals experience the world uniquely. The concept of neurodiversity emphasizes that like physical appearances, brains also vary, leading to diverse internal experiences. Neurodiversity is commonly linked to conditions like autism or ADHD, but it extends to the broader spectrum of cognitive differences. The Perception Census project aims to explore the varied ways people perceive the world, including differences in color perception, mental imagery, time perception, and pattern recognition, shedding light on the unexplored diversity in human cognition.
