VISUAL COGNITION

Visual Cognition publishes new empirical research that advances theoretical understanding of the processes underlying human visual cognition. Studies may address any aspect of visual cognition such as object, face, and scene recognition; visual attention; visual memory; visual word recognition and reading; eye movement control and active vision; and visual imagery. The journal is devoted to research at the interface of visual perception and cognition and does not typically publish papers in areas of perception or psychophysics. The typical study will use behavioral methods, but reports clearly motivated by theoretical issues that use alternative populations or methods such as neuroimaging (e.g., fMRI, ERP, MEG) or modeling (computational or mathematical) are also encouraged.

视觉认知发表了新的实证研究，促进了对人类视觉认知过程的理论理解。研究可能涉及视觉认知的任何方面，如物体、人脸和场景识别;视觉注意;视觉记忆;视觉文字识别与阅读;眼动控制和主动视觉;和视觉图像。该杂志致力于视觉感知和认知界面的研究，通常不发表知觉或心理物理学领域的论文。典型的研究将使用行为方法，但也鼓励使用神经成像(如fMRI、ERP、MEG)或建模(计算或数学)等替代人群或方法的理论问题明确地推动报告。
