Abstract

The method of creating and functioning of visual information is a phenomenon that has not been fully explored. An eye-tracking technique was used in the verification studies of visual pro-cesses in children with specific learning disabilities and their peers without that disorder. This technique contains an objective element which makes it possible to analyse data about the position and movement of the eyeballs. The obtained perceptive data are independent of the memory and mood of the person being studied. The article presents a verification analysis of how children perceive images called Family. The text constitutes a continuation of an introduction published in this magazine concerning the visual processes in children with specific learning disabilities.
