Explanation:

Cognitive learning theory emphasizes mental processes like expectations. The idea of developing an expectation of receiving a reinforcer after a response aligns with cognitive aspects (mental anticipation). The other options (solely past reinforcement - more behaviorist, automatic stimulus - response - classical conditioning/behaviorist, prior reinforcement - behaviorist leaning) are more associated with behaviorist theories rather than cognitive ones.

Answer:

develop an expectation that they will receive a reinforcer after making a response.
