Scene Perception and Event Comprehension Theory (SPECT) is an integrative theoretical framework for understanding both visual narrative perception and comprehension. It incorporates theories from the domains of scene perception, event perception, and narrative comprehension. SPECT assumes that the back-end processes involved in the construction of the event model are general cognitive mechanisms, which extend beyond the language-based modality to include visual narratives. This assumption has been supported by the data from our studies, which show evidence consistent with three stages of building the current event model: laying the foundation, mapping, and shifting. After having laid the foundation, according to SPECT, the viewer continues to map new incoming information to the current event model. A unique contribution of SPECT is that it allows us to test novel hypotheses about the interactions between front-end and back-end mechanisms, which are assumed to be bidirectional.
