Who among the following does not belong to 'Gestalt Psychology'? Correct Answer I. P. Pavlov

Psychology is very popular among students and has become a part of everyday lives. It is the science of human and animal behavior and it includes the application of this science to different problems of the human beings.

Key Points Gestalt Psychology:  Psychologists conducted experiments to study sensations in order to know how the mind functions.

  • In 1912, Max Wertheimer (1880-1943), Kurt Koffka (1886-1941) and Wolfgang Kohler (1887-1967) founded gestalt psychology in Germany.
  • They emphasized upon the whole notion of sensory experience, connecting the sensations to relations and organization as a whole.
  • They studied the mind by applying the principles of organization to human behavior. 

Thus, it is concluded that I. P. Pavlov does not belong to 'Gestalt Psychology'.
