Skinner explored this theory of operant conditioning that says the strength of a behavior is modified by said behavior’s consequences, whether they be reward or punishment. In my case, a punishment of fine and citation modified my behavior of speeding based on my aversion to the negative disciplinary measure that behavior brought on. Both classical and operant conditioning are both forms of behavior learning theory. Information processing approach likens…

The psychological studies that John Watson and Rosalie Rayner conducted a classical condition study on a 9-month old baby that he called Albert B. the infant boy started in the experiment loving animals, and a white rat. Watson startled the rat with a loud sound of a hammer hitting the metal, Albert begins to develop a phobia a fear of white rats as well as most animals and furry objects. Many people have logical fears of animals, even myself is scared of every little creature that crawls, walk…

Behavior is defined as the way that a person acts. Behavior can be reinforced or reduced. Reinforcement is used to ensure that favorable behaviors are encouraged and unfavorable behaviors are reduced, when done correctly. There are many procedures that can be used to ensure that unfavorable behaviors do not continue. One procedure that is used and is successful would be extinction. Extinction is defined as a process of reinforcing a behavior for a period of time before stopping the reinforcement…

work, it is important to know how they both function and differ from each other. Most importantly to know the differences, you focus on if the response is natural or unnatural. Classical condition was brought to light by Ivan Pavlov. In classical conditioning , it involves having a neutral sign right before a natural reflex. Ivan Pavlovs famous experiment with the dog's salivation is known all around the psychology world. In the experiment, He seen the dogs salivated to the sound of the bell…

Every journey you take must begin with a single step whether it’s physical, imaginative or an inner journey. A journey is represented on the steps you take towards a physical (set out) goal or something you want to achieve that is only achieved by imagination at this point of time. This is shown in Wind in the Willows as imaginative description is used to create an atmosphere of what the Toad, Rat and Mole are seeing. This technique is used to create an image while the Rat follows another…

Issues investigation- Ethical Research Practices- Pavlov’s Conditioning Experiment Ethics is a system of moral value that people differnate right from wrong. The code of ethics that apply to research involving people and animals, underlies strictly of the welfare of both human and nonhuman animals. Psychologist have to conduct their teaching and research compatible with the related laws and regulations. Psychologists have to consider the costs and benefits involving animals. Psychologic research…

more positive one through series of treatments. One of the most effective treatment is operant conditioning. Operant conditioning is a learning process that occurs by consequences of a behavior. The behavior of an organism is strengthened or weakened by the type of consequences it receives: a reward (reinforcement) or a punishment. The consequences lead to the general techniques of operant conditioning that will branch out to two main points, those being positive or negative. Positive…

Reinforcements in horse training can be either giving the horse something it likes i.e. positive reinforcement, or removing something it does not like i.e. negative reinforcement. Both positive and negative allows for a connection between a specific stimulus and the desired response, so that when the specific stimulus is presented again there is a greater chance of the horse’s making the correct response according to Tarpy. Like stimuli, reinforcements can be either natural or learned. Trainers…

Classical Conditioning Classical conditioning is when a neutral stimulus comes to bring about a response after it is paired with a stimulus that naturally brings about that stimulus. Operant condition is learning in which a voluntary response is strengthened or weakened, depending on its favorable consequences. Whether we realize it or not, we tend to be exposed to both classical and operant conditioning on a daily bases. Many examples of both of these conditions can be derived from media.…

which is classical conditioning, as well as shaping behavior by utilizing reinforcement and punishment schedules, which would be operant conditioning. Both classical conditioning and operant conditioning are different in many ways. Classical conditioning is the theory which involves learning a new behavior through the process of association. This would mean that two stimuli are linked together to produce a new learned response in a person or animal.(McLeod, "Classical Conditioning", 1970) For…
