Study Notes
- Gestalt psychologists believed in laws or principles of organization in perception.
- They rejected the idea of identifying objects by individual features or parts.
- Figure-ground organization is the process of segregating a whole display into objects and background.
- Subjective contours refer to interpreting a shape out of an image.
- Five Gestalt principles of perceptual organization are proximity, similarity, good continuation, closure, and common fate.
- Law of Prägnanz states that we tend to select the simplest and most stable shape or form.
- Emergence refers to the idea that qualitative differences appear as parts are added.
- Configural superiority effect (CSE) is the perception of an "odd stimulus" being faster in a composite stimulus display.
- CSE is harder to determine the unique stimulus without context.
- Discriminating between A and B is an exception to the CSE.
