Question

"Responses followed by a satisfying effect are strengthened and likely to occur again in a particular situation, but responses followed by a dissatisfying effect are weakened and less likely to occur again in a particular situation." What law of learning does this statement describe?

Answer 1

Answer:

The law of effect

Explanation:

The law of effect is a principle in Psychology that was originated by Edward Thorndike in 1898. This principle reflected behavioral conditioning, however behavioural conditioning had not been formulated at the time. The principle states that responses that cause positive or satisfactory effects in a particular situation become more likely to occur in that situation again.
