Which Mechanism Has Not Been Proposed as an Explanation for Perceptual

Multiple Choice

Which mechanism has not been proposed as an explanation for perceptual learning?

A) The common elements of two stimuli develop more latent inhibition than the unique elements, and thus less generalization and confusion occur between the two stimuli.
B) The common element will produce retrieval-generated priming of one of the unique elements that will not occur, and thus the unique elements will become inhibitory signals for each other.
C) Complex stimuli have such a large number of features that only a fraction are sampled at any one time. In pre-exposure, more and more features are linked to one another, thereby producing pattern completion when just a subset of features is presented.
D) The elements of the stimuli contribute to latent learning that is not manifest in behavior due to a lack of motivation. Perceptual learning is another case of the learning performance distinction: When no incentive is present, a behavior is less likely to occur.
