In the context of the transfer of learning, while analyzing Edward Thorndike's 'Theory of Identical Elements' and the 'Forms of Transfer' supported by Gilbert and other psychologists (such as lateral or bilateral transfer), which of the following statements most accurately explains the actual psychological process of 'Bilateral Transfer'?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Under the transfer of learning, 'Bilateral Transfer' is the process in which training or a skill acquired by one limb of the body is transferred to the other symmetrical limb. For example, if a person learns the skill of writing with the right hand, a part of it automatically develops in the left hand as well. This is also known as cross-education.
