Thorndike devised a number of wooden crates which required various combinations of latches‚ levers‚ strings and treadles to open them. A dog or a cat would be put in one of these ’puzzle-boxes’

There are four primary conditioning theories of behaviorism. These four theories are Pavlov’s (1849-1936) classical conditioning‚ Thorndike’s (1874-1949) connectionism (also known as law of effect)‚ Guthrie ’s (1886-1959) contiguous conditioning‚ and Skinner’s (1904-1990) operant conditioning. According to the text (Shunk 2012) Classical conditioning was discovered around the beginning of the 20th century by Russian physiologist Ivan Pavlov.

The historical antecedents of operant conditioning was first coined by Burrhus Frederic Skinner who believed the best way to understand behavior is to look at the causes of human and nonhuman action and its consequences‚ which are external causes of behavior only. However‚ Skinner experiments and his concepts of operant conditioning stem from that of Edward Thorndike’s "law of effect" and operant conditioning added a new term to "law of effect" called reinforcements. There are several types of reinforcement’s

Paper Classical conditioning and operant conditioning both involve the learning process. Through classical conditioning a subject will learn to respond to a stimulus such as a light or bell before food is given. In operant conditioning a subject will learn by a response given off from its environment such as hitting a button or lever accidentally resulting in a positive reinforcement‚ food given‚ and a higher chance that the action will happen again. Classical conditioning is a learned form

Classical conditioning refers to the involuntary responses that result from experiences that occur before a response. It occurs when you learn to associate two different stimuli. It involves a stimulus which has no affect and it is called the neutral stimulus. The neutral stimulus can be a person‚ place‚ or thing. The neutral stimulus‚ in classical conditioning‚ does not produce a response until it is paired with the unconditioned stimulus. For example‚ by shining a light into a person’s eye; the
