Classical Conditioning Operant Conditioning A brief overview of each and things we will look at Observational Learning
Classical Conditioning • Do you cringe at the sound of a dentist’s drill? ? • Do you salivate when passing your favorite restaurant? ? How did you learn these behaviors? • It all started with Ivan Pavlov, his dogs, and classical conditioning – A type of learning where a stimulus (something that we can respond to) gains the power to cause a behavior or action
Operant Conditioning • This is the Reinforcement and punishment type of learning – Learning in which the frequency of a behavior depends on the consequence that follows that behavior – Touching a hot oven • learn not to touch same hot oven because of reinforcement of behavior • burning hand
“The Law of Effect” • “Any behavior that has good consequences will be repeated any behavior that has bad consequences will be avoided” – Edward Thorndike
Observational Learning • Learning by observing others – learning that occurs as a function of observing, retaining and replicating behavior observed in others
