Visual thinking, also called visual/spatial learning, picture thinking, or right brained learning, is the phenomenon of thinking through visual processing. Visual thinking uses the part of the brain that is emotional and creative, to organize information in an intuitive and simultaneous way.
Visual thinking is one of a number of forms of non-verbal thought, such as kinesthetic, musical and mathematical thinking.
Visual thinking may have a comorbidity with dyslexia and autism.
