What does Thorndike's 'Law of readiness' suggest about learning?

  1. It should be forced

  2. It happens in stages

  3. Preparedness enhances learning

  4. It's based on repetition

The correct answer is: Preparedness enhances learning

Thorndike's 'Law of readiness' states that preparedness enhances learning, which means that individuals are more likely to learn and retain information when they are willing and ready to learn. This means that forcing someone to learn is not effective and learning goes beyond simply repeating information. As such, options A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not align with Thorndike's theory.
