visualperceptual
Visualperceptual, often written as visual-perceptual or visual perception, refers to the cognitive processes by which the brain interprets visual input to identify objects, locations, and events in the world. It encompasses the recognition of form, color, depth, motion, and spatial relationships, and it is distinct from basic visual sensation (such as light sensitivity) and from higher-level cognitive functions like language.
The field draws on neuroscience and psychology; two well-established pathways frame much of the theory: the
Key components include object recognition, figure-ground discrimination, form constancy, orientation, depth and motion perception, color discrimination,
Assessment typically uses neuropsychological tests and visual-perception batteries such as the Visual Object and Space Perception
