Which one of the following is not a Gestalt determinant of perceptual grouping?
Question

Which one of the following is not a Gestalt determinant of perceptual grouping?

A.

Grouping by closure

B.

Grouping by relative size

C.

Grouping by similarity

D.

Grouping by proximity

Correct option is B

The Gestalt principles of perceptual grouping describe how humans naturally organize visual elements into meaningful patterns. These principles include:
-Closure: The tendency to perceive incomplete objects as complete.
-Similarity: Grouping elements that look alike.
-Proximity: Objects close to each other are perceived as a group.

Relative size is not a Gestalt principle of grouping; rather, it is a monocular depth cue used to perceive depth and distance. Since it does not determine perceptual grouping, option (2) is correct.

Information Booster:
-Gestalt psychology emphasizes that perception is holistic rather than a sum of individual parts.
-Other Gestalt principles include continuity, common fate, and symmetry.
-The law of Prägnanz states that we perceive patterns in the simplest, most organized way.
-Relative size helps in depth perception rather than perceptual grouping
