Yes. Personally, I like ‘event perception’ vs. ‘propositional inference’. ‘Event perception’ for the “direct” case has certainly been used elsewhere, though I would have to google it to be sure where. See for example here:

Subject: [Lingtyp] semantics of object clauses of perception verbs

Please: what are the technical terms for the semantic contrast between 'she saw that the foreigner passed by' and 'she saw how the foreigner passed by'? (I just found it in Cabecar.)

Thanks in advance,

Christian
