Answer:

Max Wertheimer

Explanation:

Max Wertheimer was a gestalt psychologist who believes in whole perception rather than components or sub-parts of subjects. He was the psychologist who conducts the study on the movement of the perception. In gestalt psychology, Wertheimer proposed the perceptual movement such as the apparent movement of lights with the help of Kohlar and Koffa.

These are the three Gestalt psychologist who brings the gestalt ism in further time. The work of gestalt was concerned with perception. Its emphasis on movement perception.

Thus gestalt psychologist best describe the perceptual phenomena with understood the combination of its sub-parts and considered it as a whole.
