Question

There is a loaf of bread behind a container of milk on the table in front of you. You see the bread as a single loaf rather than two half loaves, one on either side of the milk container. Which Gestalt principle accounts for this outcome?
Select one:
a. similarity
b. parallelism
c. common fate
d. good continuation

Answer 1

Answer:

d. good continuation.

Explanation:

When it is an intersection (container of milk) between two or more objects, we recognize each object as one. Hence, instead of see two half loaves, we assume it is a single one.
