Answer 1

The correct answer is:

a. Proximity

The gestalt principle of proximity refers to the tendency to perceive objects that are close to each other as belonging to a group or as related. In this context, believing that neighbors automatically know each other is based on the principle of proximity, as it assumes that individuals who are physically close (neighbors) are somehow connected or related to each other.
