Answer to Question 2

The term gestalt can be translated as unified form, pattern, or whole.. The Gestalt laws of perception explain how we assemble pieces of information into wholes. One basic principle distinguishes between figure and ground. Objects stand out against some sort of background. There are several specific laws regarding how information is grouped. The law of proximity suggests we group together items that are close together in space. The law of similarity proposes that we group together items that are similar to one another. The law of continuity says that we perceive a series of stimuli as a unified whole when they seem to represent a continuous pattern. The principle of closure is that we group disconnected pieces of information into a meaningful whole. The law of connectedness asserts that we perceive objects as belonging together if they are located together or seem to be moving together.
