Neisser's conception of cognitive psychology emphasized information processing, which involves how we perceive, store, and retrieve information. Neisser was interested in understanding the mind in terms of its ability to process information like a computer, but he did not focus on computer science or artificial intelligence specifically. He also did not emphasize Gestalt psychology, although he did acknowledge the importance of perceptual organization.
