This question was previously asked in
HTET 2025 Level 1 PRT Question Paper (5-Jul-2026)
The correct answer is

Principle of Abstractness

Programmed instruction is based on principles such as the principle of small steps (content broken into small, sequential units), the principle of self-pacing (learners proceed at their own speed), and the principle of immediate feedback/reinforcement (learners are told at once whether their response is correct).

Programmed instruction deliberately relies on concrete, specific, step-by-step content rather than abstractness; presenting material abstractly would contradict the small-step, active-response design of programmed learning.

Therefore, "Principle of Abstractness" is not a recognised principle of programmed instruction.
