 The law of proximity states that when an individual perceives an assortment of objects, they perceive objects that are close to each other as forming a group.For example, in the figure illustrating the law of proximity, there are 72 circles, but we perceive the collection of circles in groups.Specifically, we perceive that there is a group of 36 circles on the left side of the image, and three groups of 12 circles on the right side of the image.
