Card 7 / 17:
The central tenet of Gestalt psychology is that the whole is different from the sum of its parts. What does this mean in the context of perception?
This means that perception cannot be understood completely simply by combining the parts. Rather, the relationship that exists among those parts (which would be established according to the principles described in this chapter) is important in organizing and interpreting sensory information into a perceptual set.
