Question

The __________ is an existential and phenomenological approach based on the assumption that individuals and their behavior must be understood in the context of their ongoing relationship with the present environment.

Answer 1

Answer: Gestalt approach

Explanation: The Gestalt approach or theory simply aims to define humans or objects in it's entirety. That is, considering every element, pattern or configuration that makes up an object in arriving at a definition or understanding of such object or phenomenon. The Gestalt approach negates the consideration of a single individual element in arriving at a conclusion or generalization of objects as it believes the idea results in a vague, hasty or false verdict or inference of such object or individual.
