Correct answer: (C) 1, 2 & 5 only — The secondary laws are multiple response, associative shifting and analogy, so the answer is 1, 2 and 5.
Explanation
★The secondary laws are multiple response, associative shifting and analogy, so the answer is 1, 2 and 5.
★Thorndike divided the laws of learning into primary and secondary laws.
★The primary laws are the laws of readiness, exercise and effect.
★So the law of effect and the law of exercise are primary, not secondary.
★The law of multiple response is a secondary law, matching item 1.
★The law of associative shifting is a secondary law, matching item 2.
★The law of analogy is also a secondary law, matching item 5, giving items 1, 2 and 5.
