Kevin is a "full of life" seventh grader who seems to rejoice in bugging Mrs. Wilson. ...

Kevin is a "full of life" seventh grader who seems to rejoice in bugging Mrs. Wilson. One of his habits is to "basketball" a crumpled piece of notebook paper into the wastebasket. When he misses, he then gets up regardless of the learning activity, retrieves his paper and puts it in the basket. Exasperated, Mrs. Wilson keeps him for a half hour after school during which they "play basketball."
"Let's see how long it takes you to get 30 into the basket," she announces evenly when they are alone together. "Go ahead and start."
Kevin then throws crumpled paper from his desk until he had gotten 30 into the basket. Each time he missed one, Mrs. Wilson has him get up from his desk, retrieve the paper, deposit it, and then go back to his desk to try it again. Of the following, the concept that best illustrates the technique Mrs. Wilson was attempting to implement is:
A) satiation.
B) classical conditioning.
C) discrimination.
D) extinction.
