Abstract
The idea for the edition of a special volume dedicated to Visual Perception arose as a consequence of the meeting of two researchers who come from two countries largely separated, but with a great deal of social, cultural, and scientific affinities: Spain and Brazil. Both researchers have observed that a consolidation of perceptual research and theory appears to be taking place in Spain as in Brazil. In order to highlight and facilitate such consolidation, it is important to assemble in a common volume examples of such perceptual research, and we hope this volume of Psicologica helps further these goals.
