The process by which our brains learn to understand and interpret visual information from the world around us.

Piaget believed that children actively build their understanding of the world through interaction with their environment.

The idea that infants' ability to recognize and remember visual objects depends on how often they see them.

The visual system, including the eyes and brain, undergoes rapid development during the first year of life.

An ongoing back-and-forth between physical changes in the brain and visual experiences shapes how we perceive the world.

The tendency to perceive things in a specific way based on past experiences, expectations, beliefs, and other factors.

The process of perceiving information from the bottom up, starting with individual sensory details and building up to a complete understanding.

The process of perceiving information from the top down, starting with prior knowledge and expectations and using them to interpret sensory details.

The influence of our internal state, such as hunger, thirst, or desire, on how we perceive the world.

The influence of our expectations about a situation or person on how we perceive them.

The influence of cultural norms and values on how we perceive the world.

The influence of our emotions on how we perceive the world.

The influence of our personal attitudes and beliefs on how we perceive the world.

People from different cultures may perceive depth and perspective differently due to their environment and experiences.

A critical period in early life is important for full visual development. Both eyes need input during this time for proper binocular vision.

The first few years of life are crucial for developing language skills. Hearing plays a crucial role in this process.

Visual and auditory impairments in children can pose unique challenges, even if intelligence is not significantly affected.

Piaget believed that visual perception is limited at birth and develops gradually through learning.

Hebb described stages in perceptual development where we go from perceiving color to recognizing objects holistically by focusing on details.

The ability to mentally organize sensory information, allowing us to perceive a structured world rather than a chaotic jumble of sensations.

A school of psychology emphasizing that the whole of perception is greater than the sum of its parts. It focuses on how we perceive patterns and organize visual information.

The process of identifying and separating an object from its surrounding background. Imagine looking at a picture of a cat on a patterned rug. The cat is the 'figure' and the rug is the 'ground.'

The ability to recognize an object from different angles and perspectives, even if the image changes quite a bit. For example, you can recognize a friend from a different angle, even if their face is partially obscured.

The ability to perceive sound and interpret its meaning. This involves recognizing different sounds, identifying their source, and understanding the information they convey.

The ability to see clearly in bright light conditions, allowing us to perceive color and detail.

The ability to see in low light conditions. We rely on this vision when it's dark or dim.

The ability to see in twilight conditions, where there's not enough light for photopic vision but not dark enough for scotopic vision. This is a transitional stage between day and night vision.
