Question

Carly knows that according to ________, if she administers positive reinforcement or avoidance learning, her employees will tend to continue doing their jobs in the same way they are doing them now, and if she uses punishments or extinction, they will likely not repeat it.

Answer 1

Answer:

Law of effect

Explanation:

This law was developed by Edward Thorndike

When Responses are followed by satisfaction, it causes people to become more attached to a situation. This is likely going to cause these people to continue doing things as they are doing them now. This is why if Carly uses positive reinforcement, her employees will do their jobs same way they are doing it now.

Conversely, if the situation is followed by discomfort, that is she uses punishments or extinction, the

employers will disconnect themselves from doing their jobs the same way they have been doing it.

Answer 2

Answer:

Law of effect

Explanation:

The law of effect states that "responses that produce a satisfying effect in a particular situation become more likely to occur again in that situation, and responses that produce a discomforting effect become less likely to occur again in that situation". This was postulated by Edward Thorndike. According to him, he assumed that when there's a negative reaction to event, it is less likely that the event repeats itself. In this case, if Carly gives a negative reaction like punishment or extinction, the employees will improve in the way they are carrying out their job. He opine that if people are cool or satisfied with an event, it is more likely to repeat it self again.
