Technically speaking, refers to a basic cognitive activity where invariant perceptions become permanently encoded by the nervous system--even after the sense data do begin to vary. Usually this is sound evolutionary practice: e.g. if I cognitively commit to the fact that apples are edible, I'll have an easier time nourishing myself than if I had to rediscover the apple every time.
