Cats received a fish reward whenever they maneuvered themselves out of an enclosed puzzle box. With successive trials, the cats escaped from the box with increasing speed. This illustrates:

a) negative reinforcement.
b) spontaneous recovery.
c) the law of effect.
d) respondent behavior.

c) the law of effect.

Explanation:The law of effect principle states that if we did something and it had great satisfying rewards it is very likely that provided with the same situation you will apply the same response.

However if what ever action we took was followed by negative outcome and discomfort we will weakly connect with that situation and this lessen the response and the behavior towards that situation.
