Visual Perception Theories

Visual perception theories explain how we interpret what we see. One major approach is Gestalt psychology, which suggests we perceive patterns and whole forms rather than just individual parts. Another is the constructivist approach, which posits that our brain builds visual understanding using past experiences and context. Additionally, the ecological approach emphasizes the role of the environment in shaping perception, focusing on how we interact with visual stimuli. Together, these theories help us understand how we recognize objects, interpret complex scenes, and navigate the visual world effectively.
