本文试图构建一个概念框架,以精确解释格式塔概念,如整体,格式塔质量和系统,因为它们在经验科学的各个分支中使用。我们的起点是由部分和整体给出的。即使对相关文献进行粗略的调查,也会发现这些是我们研究的基本概念。部分-整体概念是一个非常普遍的概念,适用于各种各样的用法。“部分”和“整体”这两个词在日常生活和技术用语中所起的作用的多样性证明了这一点。*然而,在目前的研究中,我们不会把自己局限于“部分”和“整体”的某种特定意义;相反,我们希望保留这些术语的广泛适用范围。为了保证这种广泛的适用范围,我们在这里假定部分-整体关系的某些基本规定是固定的和规定的。至于应用和解释的问题,我将留下一个开放的空间。
THIS paper attempts to construct a conceptual framework for the precise explication of Gestalt concepts, such as those of whole, Gestaltquality, and system, as they are employed in various branches of empirical science. Our starting point is given by the terms part and whole. Even a superficial survey of the relevant literature shows that these are the basic concepts for our investigation. The part-whole concept is a very general one, accommodating a wide variety of usages. This feet is attested to by the diversity of functions which the terms ' part' and ' whole' play in everyday and in technical parlance.* However, in the present study we will not confine ourselves to some particular sense of ' part ' and ' whole ' ; rather, we wish to retain the wide range of application of these terms. To assure such breadth of applicability, we here assume that only certain essential features of the part-whole relation are taken as fixed and specified, and .ill else left open as a matter of application and interpretation.
