The verbal learning tradition is most closely associated with:

d. Ebbinghaus

Hermann Ebbinghaus was a pioneering psychologist who focused on the study of memory and learning, specifically through his research on verbal learning and the processes of memorization and recall using nonsense syllables. His work laid the groundwork for the scientific study of memory, and he is well known for formulating the "forgetting curve" and developing methods to quantitatively measure memory retention. The other options listed—Gestalt psychology, Behaviorism, and Introspection—while important in their own rights, do not directly relate to the verbal learning tradition in the same way that Ebbinghaus's work does.
