Answer:

C. Thorndike

• When children learn a concept and use it, practice helps in reducing the errors committed .This idea was given by Thorndike.

• Edward Thorndike proposed that learning is strengthened by practice and repetition. According to his "Law of Use," the more a response is practiced in connection with a stimulus, the stronger the association becomes. Conversely, the "Law of Disuse" states that connections weaken with lack of practice.
