I've checked up for it in several dictionaries, such as collins and cambridge, neither can give a clear explanation. Furthermore, could you help exlplain a phrase "self perception"???

The easiest definition to remember is "an image in your mind".

"According to my perception of him, he's a thief. I don't have any hard evidence, but he acts like one and our conversations usually end up on the topics of diamonds, umarked bills, and fast getaways."

Self-perception is simply an image of yourself in your mind: how you view yourself.

There are four meanings for "perception":

1 the ability to see, hear, or become aware of something through the senses. His perception of the bat's squeak was due to his good hearing
2 the process of perceiving. How is your perception of the view affected?
3 a way of understanding or interpreting something. My perception is that this law seems to be unjust.
4
intuitive understanding and insight.  Her sympathy for the child is a result of her perception that he was lonely.

  — ORIGIN Latin, from percipere ‘seize, understand’.

Are you talking about self-perception theory in psychology?

Google "self perception", and take a look at the Wikipedia article on it.

"Self-perception theory is an account of attitude change developed by psychologist, Daryl Bem. It asserts that we develop our attitudes by observing our own behavior and concluding what attitudes must have caused them."

Have you read through the previous posts?  Or are you asking about "pre-reception"?
