Question
Tolman is known for learning by ______ processes.
Options
observation
assimilation
cognitive
Solution
Tolman is known for learning by cognitive processes.
Explanation:
Just when Skinner and Pavlov were talking about connections and consequences of behaviour, Edward Tolman demonstrated that though rats in his experiment were not given any food, they still learned about the different pathways in the maze. That means rats created 'maps' in the mind just for the sake of it. His experiment demonstrated that learning may take place in the 'mind' using 'mental' processes, what we call cognitive processes now.
