Social and cultural factors can influence perception. Cultural factors significantly impact how different societies view the world. Specific cultural factors include social suggestion, which can affect how we perceive various objects. Prejudice is another social factor where a total perception is based on limited cues. Time perception refers to a person's subjective experience of duration and passage of time, which can differ between individuals and circumstances. Psychological time is subjective and malleable, as shown by phrases like "time flies when you're having fun." Auditory perception refers to the brain's ability to interpret sounds and distinguish pitches, volumes, rhythms and sound sources, which benefits learning to read.
