Hi John Clark I would call that reacting. But you're welcome to call it causal. I believe that you should know all of the factors involved before calling something causal.

So when you're running and perceive a brick wall directly in front of you getting larger by the second that perception has nothing to do with you stopping just before you hit the wall.
