This visualization, titled “Iceberg Model of Meaning,” illustrates a concept in psychology and communication that suggests only a small portion of what we perceive is consciously processed, while the vast majority lies beneath the surface. The image uses the metaphor of an iceberg to divide meaning into two main categories: surface meaning and deeper meaning, each influenced by distinct psychological factors.
