Empiricism argues that these skills are learned. This issue has been so central in studies of perception that researchers have focused almost all their attention on young infants; only by observing infants can they observe that organism when it is relatively uninfluenced by specific experience.

Scientist discovered that there are two visual pathways in the primate visual cortex‚ the dorsal stream and the ventral stream. Drs.

They called the ventral stream the “what” stream because they believed it processed visual information about an objects structure
