When simple and symmetric forms are seen more easily than more complicated and asymmetric forms. This law is known as ..............

  • A.Law of closure
  • B.Law of common fate
  • C.Law of Pragnanz
  • D.Law of Similarity

Answer: C

This is the Law of Pragnanz.

Pragnanz (German for 'conciseness' or 'good form') is the overarching Gestalt principle that the perceptual system organises a stimulus into the simplest, most regular and symmetrical form the conditions allow. That is why simple, symmetric figures are seen more easily than complicated, asymmetric ones.

Closure is the tendency to fill gaps and see incomplete figures as whole. Common fate is grouping elements that move in the same direction. Similarity is grouping elements that look alike. Each is a specific grouping rule, not the general preference for simplicity described here.
