How does psychology affect the first colors/optical illusions that are seen in a picture?
Answer Hi, Jeanette. Actually, psychology itself doesn’t affect anything sensory or perception related. Psychology is simply the science that studies these and other areas of human behavior and influence. However, the first stimuli to be seen in a picture would depend on light (is it dark or bright where you are) and the angle at which you’re viewing the picture. Dim light would enable you to see shades of gray more readily than colors, and bright light would do the opposite. Also, viewing something out of your peripheral vision would cause you to “see” the shades of gray more readily than the colors… which would be seen better facing the picture head-on. Hope this helps!
