Notebook, 1993- RELATIONSHIPS

Nearness

Stimuli that are near each other tend to be grouped together. If three people stand near one another and a fourth person stands 10 feet away, the adjacent three will be seen as a group and the distant person an outsider--and how differently a group of a certain number can be perceptually organized depending upon their spacing.
