The law of Pragnanz or law of good figure refers to

  • A.Tendency to read an ambiguous stimulus in accordance with an expectation.
  • B.Viewing under suboptimal conditions such as an object is shaded or overlapped.
  • C.The tendency to perceive the simplest and most stable figure of all possible perceptual alternatives.
  • D.The ability to recognise and identify common objects.

Answer: C

The law of Pragnanz, or the law of good figure, refers to the tendency to perceive the simplest and most stable figure of all the possible perceptual alternatives. It is a principle of Gestalt psychology.

Reading an ambiguous stimulus according to expectation is perceptual set, viewing an object that is shaded or overlapped under poor conditions relates to degraded viewing, and recognising common objects is pattern recognition. None of them is the law of Pragnanz.
