Visual dominance
Visual dominance refers to the tendency of our sense of sight to take precedence over other senses when processing information or navigating our environment. When visual cues are available, we rely on them more heavily than sounds or touch to understand situations, make decisions, or communicate. This phenomenon explains why bright screens or clear visuals can strongly influence our perceptions, often overriding other sensory inputs. Essentially, our brains prioritize what we see because vision provides detailed and immediate information, making it a dominant sense in many everyday tasks.
