visual categorization: physiological mechanisms  

Definición

  • Visual categorization refers to the ability to group stimuli according their behavioral significance or meaning. Stimuli from the same category are treated as “similar,” though they may differ greatly from one another in their physical features (e.g., a “giraffe” and “lizard” are both of the category “animal”).
