Edward Thorndike Studied Animal Behavior and Learning Processes

Edward Thorndike studied animal behavior and learning processes. He formulated a theory of learning based on his research; one component of that theory is the idea of associative shifting. Which of the following best describes this idea?

A) When stimulus S is paired with stimulus Q, response R will be disconnected from stimulus S.
B) When stimulus S is paired with response R, stimulus Q will also be paired with response R if it is paired with stimulus S.
C) When stimulus S is paired with response R, stimulus Q will also be paired with response R if it presented with stimulus S multiple times.
D) When stimulus S is paired with stimulus Q, response R will be paired with both S and Q if it occurs with both stimuli.
