how we respond‚ emotionally or physically. With classic conditioning‚ we respond to our environment and it stimulates a physical response. Like‚ when a child hears an ice cream truck‚ they become very excited. If the child does not get to go to the ice cream truck‚ the response might become extinct from not being able to get ice cream when they hear the truck. Operant conditioning is different than classic conditioning because with operant‚ a consequence follows the action put forth. If a child rides

OPERANT CONDITIONING ELEMENTS -the likelihood that a behavior will occur is increased by reward (i.e.‚ REINFORCEMENT) and decreased by PUNISHMENT. PUNISHMENT - introduction of an aversive stimulus aimed at reducing the rate of an unwanted behavior. RE-INFORCEMENT - any event contingent upon the response of the organism that alters the likelihood of the response. - rewarded response are always strengthened but - punished responses do not always diminish POSITIVE RE-INFORCEMENT -any event

Operant Conditioning I don’t have a child yet but if I do‚ then this will be my procedure for that child to be in bed by 9:00 pm.

Several factors can affect the speed of conditioning during the acquisition phase. The most important factors are the order and timing of the stimuli. Conditioning occurs most quickly when the conditioned stimulus (the bell) precedes the unconditioned stimulus (the food) by about half a second. Conditioning

Operant Conditioning Skinner showed how positive reinforcement worked by placing a hungry rat in his Skinner box. The box contained a lever in the side and as the rat moved about the box it would accidentally knock the lever. Immediately it did so a food pellet would drop into a container next to the lever. The rats quickly learned to go straight to the lever after a few times of being put in the box. The consequence of receiving food if they pressed the lever ensured that they would repeat

similarities between Classical conditioning and Operant conditioning? Many people believe that Classical and Operant are similar.

Classical and Operant are very similar to each other

Operant Conditioning and Classical Conditioning Operant conditioning is a method of learning that occurs through rewards and punishments for behavior. Through operant conditioning‚ an association is made between a behavior and a consequence for that behavior. The process relies on the idea that organisms respond to stimuli‚ and that if they can be taught to associate a specific stimulus with a particular behavior‚ they will be more likely to engage in or avoid the behavior‚ depending on the type
