20. Introduction
In order to design for the human mind, it’s helpful to understand how attention guides a person
to perceive and then comprehend information while learning. Outside of research circles, one
under discussed phenomenon is bottom-up and top-down processing. The theory provides an
insightful look at how the brain works and how we can apply this to learning and visual design.
It starts during perception.
Psychology 101
In your first psychology or biology class, you probably learned that perception is becoming
aware of something through the senses. The Encyclopedia of Perception defines it like this,
“Perception comprises an integration of top-down and bottom-up information, with their
relative importance determined as a function of the available sensory information, the task at
hand, the perceiver’s goals, and past experiences.” These ideas become more clear if you
look at each type of processing.
Bottom-Up Processing
Bottom-up processing refers to information coming through the senses that influences
perception. Some refer to this as stimulus-driven or data-driven perception. If you notice a
brightly colored painting before noticing a subdued one, it is probably due to bottom-up
processing. Bottom-up processing occurs early in the perceptual process without conscious
attention or effort.
