1.Which statement correctly describes the law of effect?

The law of effect is based on Pavlov’s idea that rewards strengthen the link between the preceding response and any stimuli present during the reward.Today, Thorndike’s terms ‘satisfiers’ and ‘annoyers’ are referred to as reinforcers and punishers.The law of effect involves the formation of a stimulus-response (S-R) connection through learning.It is widely believed that the consequences of a behavior do not influence how likely an animal is to perform that behavior again.
