Answer:
A. Law of proximity
Read Explanation:
Gestalt Laws of Perceptual Organization
Law of Proximity (Nearness): States that objects or stimuli situated close to one another in space or time are naturally perceived as a unified group or a single pattern rather than as individual, isolated parts.
Gestalt Psychology: Founded in Germany in the early 20th century primarily by Max Wertheimer, Kurt Koffka, and Wolfgang Köhler.
Meaning of Gestalt: A German word signifying 'whole', 'pattern', or 'configuration'. Its central premise is that "The whole is greater than the sum of its parts."
Other Major Gestalt Principles of Grouping
Law of Similarity: Stimuli that share similar physical characteristics (such as shape, color, or size) tend to be grouped together.
Law of Closure: The human visual system tends to automatically fill in gaps or missing information to perceive incomplete shapes or figures as complete wholes.
Law of Continuity (Good Continuation): Elements arranged on a line or smooth curve are perceived as belonging together rather than forming sharp, disjointed angles.
Law of Pragnanz (Good Figure/Simplicity): The mind organizes visual inputs in the simplest, most regular, and most symmetrical way possible.
Figure-Ground Relationship: The tendency of the perceptual system to separate a visual scene into the main object of focus (the figure) and the background against which it appears (the ground).
