a reproduced image of an object or phenomenon that a person does not perceive at the moment, but recreates on the basis of past experience. The mental process of forming this image is also called representation. Hence, representation can be considered a kind of “secondary” image. Representations make it possible to do without repeated direct contact with an object, provide the accumulation of information about the real world in a concise, compact form, and form the attitude of an individual to the perceived object.
