Classical conditioning and operant conditioning are both ways that we learn through experience. These forms of conditioning are very different from each other‚ but both can lead to a process known as extinction‚ where a connection or response is broken or weakened (Kowalski & Westen‚ 2011). Classical conditioning occurs when a neutral stimulus is consistently added to an

B). Operant conditioning: When a teacher rewards good behavior with a token‚ and students can exchange these tokens for extra rewards. Classical conditioning: In animal training‚ a trainer might utilize classical conditioning by repeatedly pairing the sound of a clicker with the taste of food. Eventually‚ the sound of the clicker alone will begin to produce the same response that the taste of food would.

assumptions of this theory are that the environment shapes behaviour and that taking internal mental states into consideration is useless in explaining behaviour. Ivan Pavlov‚ a Russian physiologist discovered the classical conditioning in the 1920s. Classical conditioning focuses on the learning of involuntary emotional or physiological responses. In his laboratory‚ Pavlov was in a dead end by his experiments to determine how long it took a dog to secrete digestive juices after it had been fed

When you think of punishment and reward you think of a reaction; but man has come up with theories of why we do the things that we can do. Conditioning and learning is defined as change in behavior‚ which is resulted by different types of practices and experiences. In this report the main topics will be classical conditioning‚ operant conditioning‚ cognitive-social learning‚ and neuroscience and evolution. Every time we do something good or bad the outcome determines our reactions in future situations
