PSYCHOLOGY – Ms. Shirley Unit 3: Learning “Operant Conditioning”

What is Learning? Most learning is... Associative Learning: Realization that certain events occur together. Learning itself refers to a relatively durable change in behavior or knowledge that is due to experience. ★ Classical Conditioning ★ Operant Conditioning ★ Observational Learning (Latent, Abstract, Insight)

Adding a positive = green plus Adding a negative = red plus Subtracting a negative = red minus Subtracting a positive = green minus

Behaviorism To a Behaviorist: Everything you know, everything you are is the result of human behavior. Psychology is the study of behavior, not of the mind! Picked up steam in the late 1960s and during the 1970s. A reaction to the non-scientific work of Freud.

Classical vs. Operant They both use acquisition, discrimination, S-R, generalization & extinction. Classical Conditioning: automatic (respondent behavior). Ex.) Your dog gets sick & requires several painful trips to the vet. Now he hides every time he hears you rattle your keys. Automatic. Your cat is excited to eat because he knows that as soon as you get home, he gets fed. Operant Conditioning: behavior where one can influence their environment with behaviors which have consequences (operant behavior). Ex.) Teacher comments on test. Child working on homework, if completed can play their Xbox. If not completed, may lose play time.

Operant Conditioning A type of learning in which behavior is strengthened if followed by reinforcement or diminished if followed by punishment Trial & Error >Trial & Reward >Operant Conditioning Operant Response - Reinforcement - Learned Behavior in rats: ★ trial and error learning ★ allows acquisition of motor programs that are not instinctive ★ behavior shaped by rewards ★ develops as a result of the association of reinforcement with a particular response ★ on a proportion of occasions

Edward Thorndike Law of Effect: rewarded behavior is likely to be repeated. Studied at cats inside a ‘puzzle box’ - found that a well-practiced cat will find the way out. If an action brings an reward, Thorndike believed that that action becomes stamped into the mind. Behavior changes because of the consequences of that behavior. Previous theories had emphasized practice or repetition. Thorndike gave equal consideration to the effects of reward or punishment, success or failure, & satisfaction or annoyance on the learner.

B.F. Skinner Instead of antecedents of behavior (what comes before) a new focus on consequences of behavior. BF Skinner argued that, CC did not explain complex behavior. 2 categories of consequences: Reinforcement & Punishment Reinforcement is designed to increase the probability that a behavior will occur again. Punishment is designed to decrease the probability that a behavior will occur again.
