In the context of 'Transfer of Learning', according to the 'Theory of Identical Elements' proposed by psychologist Edward Thorndike, the transfer of knowledge or skills acquired in one situation to another situation mainly depends on which factor?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Edward Thorndike proposed the 'Theory of Identical Elements', clarifying that knowledge, skills, or habits learned in one situation transfer to another only when both situations share identical elements, procedures, or objectives. The greater the similarity between the two situations, the greater the amount of transfer.
