Q

visual attention requires:

A

alertness selective attention visual vigilance and divided or shared attention

17
Q

visual memory

A

the mental manipulation of visual information needed for visual cognition and requires the ability to retain the information in memory of immediate recall or to store for later retrieval

18
Q

visual discrimination

A

the ability to detect distinctive features of a visual stimulus is different from or the same as others. it involves:
- recognition
matching
sorting

19
Q

the three things at the bottom of the hierarchy structure:

A

oculomotor control

visual fields visual acuity

20
Q

oculomotor control

A

efficient eye movement ensures the scan path is accomplished

21
Q

visual fields

A

register the complete visual scene

22
Q

scanning

A

the ability of the retina to record all of the details of the scene systematically through the use of the scan path

23
Q

pattern recognition

A

ability to store information in memory requiring pattern detection and recognition
- identify salient features of an object including configurable aspects

24
Q

visual cognition

A

ability to mentally manipuate visual information and integrate it with other sensory information to solve problems formulate plans and

from constancy
the recognition that forms and objects remain the same in various environments, positions, and sizes
26
visual closure:
identification of forms or objects from incomplete representations
27
figure ground
is the ability to perceive a from visually and to find this form hidden in a conglomerated ground or model
