There is no direct antonym other than the rarely used "extrospection", seeking external or societal evidence or information. Any activity that involves scholarship, study, or investigation could be the opposite of introspection depending on the context. INTROSPECTION is the process of internal, or personal, examination. It is often linked with meditation, contemplation, or "soul searching".

"Perception". To perceive is to detect external stimuli. Since introspection involves the examination of one's internal mental state, then by definition you do not perceive while introspecting. It may feel like you perceive (while introspecting) but that's simply the brain still processing the consciousness of the neural network.
