Asked 3 months ago · Viewed 1,895 times
Which of the following psychological statements is most authentic and scientifically valid regarding the real psychological implications of the 'Law of Readiness', the 'Law of Exercise' (including laws of use and disuse), and the 'Law of Effect' propounded under Edward Thorndike's 'Connectionism / Trial and Error Theory', and their application in classroom teaching for the consolidation of satisfying responses (S-R bonds), error-free learning, and the scientific management of cognitive correlation?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
In Edward Thorndike's connectionism theory, the 'Law of Readiness' is linked to neuromuscular readiness. When a neural pathway is ready to act and is allowed to do so, it is satisfying, making learning more effective. If it is not ready and forced to act, it causes dissatisfaction or annoyance. This is a crucial psychological concept for understanding students' mental and physical maturity.
