Right Answer is: C
SOLUTION
TRANSFER OF LEARNING
- The term transfer of learning is often called transfer of training or transfer effect.
- It refers to the effects of prior learning on new learning.
- The transfer is considered to be positive if the earlier learning facilitates current learning.
- It is considered to be a negative transfer if new learning is retarded.
- The absence of a facilitative or retarding effect means zero transfer.
Habit Strength:
- Generalized habit strength is a construct in Hull's learning theory.
- It is a measure of the habit strength, taking into account the reduction resulting from a difference between the current stimulus and the stimulus present in the initial learning trials.
Hence, Generalization is the most important factor in Habit Strength.
