Manipulating reflexes does this. Operant conditioning is a type of learning in which the likelihood of a behavior is increased or decreased by the use of reinforcement or punishment.

He presented a dog with a bowl of food and measured the saliva the dog produced. But after doing this same experiment over and over again the dog

& Westen‚ 2009). Classical conditioning occurs when there is an interaction between two different stimuli‚ environmental and a naturally occurring stimulus.

They include: The unconditioned stimulus‚ the unconditioned response‚ the conditioned stimulus and the conditioned response. The most popular example of this is when Pavlov was studying dog’s digestive tracks and would ring a bell every
