Problem: Compare and contrast "the model of perceptual binding" with "the feature-integration theory" and "Gestalt theory". Explain how mirror neurons play a role in observational learning? Provide an example.

Solution:
Perceptual binding differs from the feature integration theory and Gestalt theory, due to the fact that perceptual binding is concerned with the study of the methodology by which the brain assembles the myriad of differing sensory input into the effective development of what we refer to as consciousness. It is the brain's ability to assemble and integrate differing observed phenomenon and ...
