D

Explanation

The question is about a concept closely associated with the field of Psychology. It's described as loosely being defined as the awareness of self and environment and the ability to process information on multiple levels of awareness. Perception relates to how one interprets their sensory information. Behavior involves the observable actions made by a living being, often in response to its environment. While Psychology is the study of mind and behavior, and indeed involves concepts of awareness/self-awareness in its study, the concept that best suits the description provided in the question is Consciousness. Consciousness is broadly explained as the awareness of both ourselves and our environment, which fits the question's description perfectly.
