Marisa Carrasco (psychologist)

Marisa Carrasco is a psychologist and researcher who studies how our visual attention and expectations influence what we perceive. Her work explores how factors like focus, anticipation, and background can enhance or diminish our ability to see and interpret visual information. By examining these processes, she helps us understand the flexibility and limitations of human perception, contributing to areas like visual cognition and attention. Her research provides insights into how our brain processes complex visual scenes, which has implications for improving visual performance and understanding certain perceptual disorders.
