About sensation, perception and attention mind maps
GoConqr OriginalSensation, Perception and Attention mind maps
These maps let you follow branches through topics in the unit. Visual Perception brings together vision, illusions and depth perception, while Taste and Smell covers tastes, taste buds and neural signals. Other maps explore Gestalt laws, object recognition and attention.
Choose a map and follow its branches
Start with Visual Perception if you want to see several aspects of vision in one map. Follow one branch at a time, then explain the connections in your own words. For a narrower topic, open Structure of the Eye and Retina and trace the parts shown there.
When you want to check your understanding, switch to a quiz on the unit page. If you want to practice recalling terms, look for flashcards there. Return to a map whenever you want to look again at how its ideas connect. Choose a branch that matches your current topic and explore it.
Frequently asked questions
Which mind map is a good place to start?
Try Visual Perception if you are studying vision and want a map with several related branches. It includes the physiology of vision, visual illusions and depth perception. For a more focused look at the eye, you could open Structure of the Eye and Retina instead.
Are the mind maps free to use?
Yes. Every mind map listed here is free to open and study, and you do not need an account to use it. The resources were made by GoConqr users. A free account also lets you make your own mind maps, quizzes, flashcards and notes, and save quiz scores.
Which levels and exams do these maps suit?
The collection is mainly university-level, with resources for school students too. It includes a map on perception for GCSE Psychology and one on a foundational concept for the MCAT. Check a map's title and contents to see whether it fits the topic you are studying or teaching.
