Assimilation

Explanation:

Assimilation is known as one element of the adaptation process originally suggested by Jean Piaget. Using assimilation, a person can acquire new information or experiences and add them to a set of ideas which were already present. It is considered a more or less subjective process since people usually try to modify information or experiences to make them suit their already built beliefs.
