Visual search strategies
Visual search strategies refer to the methods people use to locate specific information or objects within visual displays. These can include systematically scanning the environment, focusing on distinct features, or using spatial cues to guide attention. For example, when searching for a book on a shelf, one might start at one end and move across, looking closely at titles and colors. These strategies help us efficiently find what we need, whether in daily tasks, like finding a key, or more complex scenarios, like navigating a crowded space or analyzing data in a graph.
