difference between classical and operant conditioning?
operant conditioning is a consequence from an action (mice looking for food) while classical conditioning brings in a factor which causes a result (pavlov’s dogs)
person is presented a motivated object
positive reinforcement
removal of a stimulus to enforce behavior
negative reinforcement
This works by presenting a negative consequence after an undesired behavior is exhibited, making the behavior less likely to happen in the future.
positive punishment
This happens when a certain desired stimulus/item is removed after a particular undesired behavior is exhibited, resulting in the behavior happening less often in the future.
negative punishment
Extinction is observed in both operantly conditioned and classically conditioned behavior. When operant behavior that has been previously reinforced no longer produces reinforcing consequences the behavior gradually stops occurring
extinction
Shaping is a conditioning paradigm used primarily in the experimental analysis of behavior. The method used is differential reinforcement of successive approximations.
shaping
structure of rewards where two or more simple schedules of reinforcement operate simultaneously
reinforcement schedule
limitations of behavior therapy
lack of attention that behavior therapy gives to emotion
rational vs irrational thinking
rational thinking is based on logic and reason, whereas irrational thinking is based on neither. Throughout our lives, we encounter various situations where we have to make choices
