It is amazing how people organize visual information in the mind and how each individual views things.

It's ironic how simplified complex tasks can become. To us and our perception, it can be complex and a complete mess.

Knowing how we come to analyze the things we perceive and find order in our daily lives is a crucial basis in better understanding our judgments and future actions. I like how you summed up this chapter with this line: Gestalt psychology focuses on thinking and perception and this theory... emphasizes that the mind “adds structure and meaning to incoming sensations” (Hunt 321). I felt that compare to perception personality which was more bottom-up processing and relied heavily on the senses, Gestalt psychology tries to approach the information and things we see through top-bottom processes to make better sense of why it exists.Amy Amezquitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15716556396380188501noreply@blogger.com
