In the context of 'Transfer of Learning', according to Charles Judd's 'Theory of Generalization' proposed as an alternative to E.L. Thorndike's 'Theory of Identical Elements', on the basis of which main process is the transfer of learning most effective?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Charles Judd proposed the 'Theory of Generalization' in 1908. According to his famous Water-Target Experiment, the transfer of learning does not solely depend on Thorndike's 'identical elements', but rather on how well the learner has generalized the previously acquired knowledge or principles and how intelligently they can apply those principles to new and different situations. Judd's theory considers theoretical understanding and intellectual generalization as the primary basis for transfer.
