when a child works on a "connect the dots" puzzle, she can often see the completed work before she has finished all of the dots. once there is enough visual information present, she’s able to perceive the completed picture even though it is still incomplete. which gestalt principle does this demonstrate?

This is because the principle of closure is a type of gestalt principle whereby individuals use their brain to fill the missing part of a picture or diagram after staring at them for some time. This mental filling of missing parts in a picture or diagram ensures one discerns the actual diagram or picture.

Thus, in this case, when the child sees the completed work once, there is enough visual information present, and able to complete the picture even though it is still incomplete, this action demonstrates the gestalt principle of closure.

Hence, in this case, it is concluded that the correct answer is the "principle of closure."
