Please match the correct variable to the type of variable it is using the following study description.

Which of the following are accurate regarding the statement that behavior is lawful? BKLO#3 Behavior follows 3 primary laws of learning. This is a key assumption of learning theories. Behavior can be understood because there are causes for behaviors. We can understand that when event A causes behavior X and event A happens, as long as nothing atypical stops it from happening, behavior X will occur.
