    "Aesthesiology, the psychology of sensation" is the examination of Sensation is the process that allows our brains to take in information via our five senses, which can then be experienced and interpreted by the brain.

    Some reasons we look at "Aesthesiology, the psychology of sensation" include detection of external or internal stimulation (e.g., eyes detecting light waves, ears detecting sound waves). It is different from perception, which is about making sense of, or describing, the stimulation (e.g., seeing a chair, hearing a guitar).
