Learning Learning is a permanent change in behaviour caused by experience. The learner does not need to have the experience directly; we can also learn by observing others . It is an ongoing process. Our knowledge of the world is continually being revised as we are exposed to new stimuli and receiving ongoing feedback that allows us to modify our behaviour when we find ourselves in a similar position again Psychologists who have studied learning have developed advanced therories on the process

consequences. Over a period of time‚ if a certain outcome is consistently followed by a particular behavior‚ this may affect the incidence of future behaviors (Charles‚ 2014). Through the use of positive and negative reinforcement‚ a behavior may increase or decrease. Using reinforcement schedules may also ensure a productive outcome because of the consistency that it offers. Operant Conditioning Operant conditioning is the method of learning through a system of rewards (Charles‚ 2014). and punishments

encountering a reinforcing stimulus (monetary or tangible reward) increases the probability of recurrence. The following study examines the theory of operant conditioning‚ positive and‚ negative reinforcements‚ effectiveness‚ a real-world application of operant conditioning‚ and an applicable reinforcement schedule. Theory of Operant Conditioning Operant conditioning is a form of learning that exists within the science of psychology and is one of two types of conditioning‚ the other‚ classical conditioning

stimulus that elicits a response after association with reinforcement (in contrast to related stimuli not associated with reinforcement) • reinforcer: in operant conditioning‚ any event that strengthens the behavior it follows • positive reinforcement: increasing behaviors by presenting positive stimuli‚ such as food. A positive reinforcer is any stimulus that‚ when presented after a response‚ strengthens the response • negative reinforcement: increasing behaviors by stopping or reducing negative

consequences First book published‚ the behaviour of organisms 1938. Skinner demonstrated that organisms tend to repeat those responses that are followed by favourable consequences. This fundamental principle is embodied in skinner’s concept of reinforcement. Reinforcement occurs when an event following a response increases an organism’s tendency to make that response. A response is strengthened because it leads to rewarding consequences. Example. Skinner says: operant conditioning shapes behaviour as a

Classical conditioning is built on creating relationships by association over trials. Some people confuse Classical Conditioning with Reinforcement Theory. To keep them separated just look for the presence of rewards and punishments. EVERYDAY CLASSICAL CONDITIONING This type of influence is extremely common.
