Select the most appropriate synonym of the word perceived stated in para 5 of the given passage.

In Paragraph 5, the text states "...since there isn't a perceived need to put forth heroic efforts every day." Here, "perceived" means regarded, visualized, or expected based on interpretation.
Anticipated (to expect or predict) is the closest synonym in meaning to an expected or felt necessity.
