Description

First, eight quantitative experiments conducted by the present author and his collaborators on Gestalt factors are reviewed. These are concerned with perceptual grouping in simultaneous, successive and moving patterns, as well as perceptual transparency, pattern masking, apparent motion, and span of attention (Figures 1〜9). For example, factor of proximity is compared with factor of similarities in color, lightness, size and form, varying separation between stimulus objects in bi-stable situations (Figures1 and 6) The matched separations are used as the measures of similarities and compared between different stimulus dimensions. Factors of common fate and symmetry are also examined, using moving dots (Figure5). Secondly, the functions and functioning levels of these Gestalt factors and the law of minimal changes are discussed in relation to perceptual information-processing.
