ABSTRACT

The enquiries developed in empirical research and in general theoretical elucidations under the specific guidance of the psychological gestalt-theoretical conception, in fact continually give indications of this psychophysical sub­ structure ; and they are, accordingly, essentially co­ determined by its basic character, as seen from the point of view of scientific theory. The purely psychologically founded gestalt concept, too, always involves what seems to have been ascertained “ from the starting point of physics ” about the definiteness and certainty of the gestalt tenets.
