I placed a merge tag on this article since it seems to be referring to the same concepts that Sensation is. — Wknight94 ( talk) 21:02, 24 November 2006 (UTC)
I agree that this page can be merged with sensation Kpmiyapuram 13:15, 5 April 2007 (UTC) fuccndnendkjwenwe — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CFDE:DD40:2104:D942:1A3C:55B2 ( talk) 19:22, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
I have moved the article from the title Sensation and perception to Sensation (psychology). As now started, this article is above all about sensation, althought in context of the sensation-->perception model.
Relationship to the article Sense: while the article Sense could have a section "Sensation", "sense" is not synonymous with "sensation". Given the sense of vision, there is (according to one theory) first a visual sensation and then a visual perception. The keyword "sense" does not select between "visual sensation" and "visual perception": both are visual and coming from senses, in this case from sight.
I hope my understanding is correct; I'll gladly stand corrected.

I propose merge to Sensory system. See talk page there for discussion: Talk:Sensory_system#Merge_from_Sensation_.28psychology.29. Mikael Häggström ( talk) 17:24, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
This doesn't read like a psychology article to me, and the "These topics are considered part of psychology, and not anatomy or physiology, because processes in the brain so greatly affect the perception of a stimulus" line just sounds ridiculous. With that reasoning, any anatomy article can be categorized as a psychology article.
This article is filled with exact anatomical and physiological explanations for biological sensation and doesn't discuss the psychological impact of sensation at all. This article should be talking about the psychological and cultural impacts of sensation, tying in specific disorders, drug use, and the history of the psychological study of sensation. This article does none of these things.
Most of the information in this article needs to be merged with Sensory system and this needs to be entirely rewritten. -- Iamozy ( talk) 20:44, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
I also just removed an ad for a law firm in the Vision loss subsection. Is anybody paying attention to this article? --21:07, 4 February 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Iamozy ( talk • contribs)
