Which of the following is NOT a correct statement-

Correct option is C

Correct Option – (c)
Introduction:
Psychological theories of learning and development emphasize that language is a fundamental tool for cognitive self-regulation and internal thought processes.
Information Booster:
· Language and Self-Regulation: The statement that language plays no role in self-regulation is incorrect. In reality, language (specifically Private Speech as proposed by Vygotsky) is the primary mechanism through which individuals direct their own attention, plan activities, and solve problems.
· Self-regulation involves using "inner speech" to inhibit impulses and guide logical reasoning, making language central to the process.
Additional Knowledge:
· Operant Behavior: This is a correct statement. Operant conditioning (Skinner) involves behaviors that are emitted by the organism and are influenced by discriminative stimuli that signal the availability of reinforcement.
· Encoding in LTM: This is a correct statement from the Information Processing perspective. True learning involves the transition of data from sensory/working memory into long-term memory via encoding.
· Respondent Behavior: This is a correct statement. In Classical Conditioning (Pavlov), respondent behavior is an involuntary reflex that is elicited (forced) by an unconditioned stimulus (like salivating in response to food).
