Matthew J. Koehler September 22, 2005CEP Cognition and Technology Visual Representations What do you data tell you from your homework?
Matthew J. Koehler September 22, 2005CEP Cognition and Technology Readings … Verbal and Visual information seems to get processed in different areas of the brain
Matthew J. Koehler September 22, 2005CEP Cognition and Technology Visual Imagery Its probably not pictures in the brain but: The representation at least has some spatial qualities preserved (e.g. feature x is left of feature y, feature a is above feature b, etc)
Matthew J. Koehler September 22, 2005CEP Cognition and Technology Visual Imagery Visual imagery seems to be processed in very similar ways to perceptual information E.G., mental rotation experiments - people transform the representation through intermediate positions to the target representation
Matthew J. Koehler September 22, 2005CEP Cognition and Technology Visual Imagery People are very good at making cognitive (birds’-eye view) maps for navigation They are not so good at making representations in the first-person
