Multiple Choice

Even after hundreds of trials of training, the student will probably still occasionally press the wrong button. How can this be explained by stimulus sampling theory?

• A) The student is tired and more prone to mistakes after so many trials.
• B) The student may temporarily forget which key is the correct one after a while.
• C) The connection between the tone and the key deteriorates after repeated presentation.
• D) The tone activates a subset of elements that are not yet linked to the correct key.
