Based on the experiments conducted by Wolfgang Köhler on a chimpanzee named Sultan, which of the following options most accurately defines the process of 'cognitive restructuring' in the 'Gestalt Insight Learning Theory'?

Detailed Explanation & Solution

Understanding Gestalt Insight Learning Theory

According to Gestalt psychology, learning is not a mechanical or gradual trial-and-error process, but rather based on insight where the organism perceives the problem field in its entirety using cognitive abilities.

  • Insightful Learning: It involves a sudden reorganization of the perceptual field.
  • Cognitive Restructuring: The learner restructures the cognitive field to see the relationship between means and ends suddenly.
