Abstract

|
|
This study analyzed restaurant table settings with Gestalt’s law of visual perception to obtain basic data for future
marketing strategies. The research uses methods that involve applying images of restaurant table settings to Gestalt’s law of visual perception, doing content analysis, and conducting a frequency analysis as well as a Chi-square test for classification analysis by visual perception. Results show a significant difference in the laws of visual perception, especially in the laws of nearness and closure, between table settings of different countries and backgrounds, such as Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Western cultures. In terms of the law of nearness, Chinese dishes were low, while other countries’ dishes and Korean dishes showed high figures. In terms of the law of closure, Japanese dishes and western dishes had low values, while other countries’ dishes and Korean dishes were high in their closure. Further studies on consumer awareness by visual perception classification need to be conducted.
