Perceptual
Organization and the Global-Local Relationship
G. Amirkhiabani & W.J. Lovegrove |
Previous
research has produced contradictory results and ambiguities in regard
to the global precedence effect. In the present study, the global-local
relationship is discussed in association with perceptual organization
and the concepts of part and whale. The global-local relationship
is classified into four major categories: inclusion, placeholder,
featural and dimensional. Any of these relationships may or may not
be accompanied with a semantic relationship between the two levels.
