Reinforcement theory
-An intigration of psychoanalytic principles, Hullian behaviorism (Clark Hull's mathematically-oriented theory- drive), and social learning
-Learning entails 4 elements
4 elements in learning (Dollard/Miller)
-Drive (motivation): internal/external/innate/learned

-Cue (discriminative stimulus; what person notices): sets response in progress, when, where, which

-Response (resulting behavior): the dominant response, due to prior learning, will probably happen

Reinforcement (reward for the behavior):
4 types of conflict situations
-Approach-Approach:Choosing between two desirable goals
-Approach-Avoidance: for the same goal (do and don't want)
-Avoidance-avoidance:Two undesirable goals
-Double Approach- avoidance: both approach and avoidance of two different goals simultaneously (pro's and con's of two decisions)
Reinforcement theory 6 Conflict behavior assumptions
1) The inclination to approach a goal strengthens the closer a person gets to it
2) Inclination to avoid a feared goal(stimulus) strengthens the closer the goal gets
3) The strength of avoidance increases more quickly than strength of approach
4) Increase in drive increases either/both approach and avoidance
5) Response strength is influenced by history of reinforcement
6)Two simultaneous conflicting responses will result in either the stronger response occurring or a stalemate (causing neurosis)
Neurosis according to Dollard/Miller
develops with there is a conflict from two+ strong drives, resulting in incompatible responses
Therapy
-viewed as learning area to extinguish neurotic responses and add better responses
-Removing repression
-free association, attention and acceptance from therapist
-reframing, rehearsing responses
