cage fitted with mechnism which brought out food pellet
rat soon learnt that by hitting mechnism, gets reward of food pellet so behaviour was repeated
what is operatnt conditioning charcterised by
too maddie sally
trial and error learning
manipulation of enviorment
shaping behaviour
example of a strengthed S-R bond
returning a high air badminton shot with a smash shot
way in whcih coach can link correct repsonse with stimulus is by psoritve reinfroement, negative reinforecemtn, punishment
postive reinfroment
where a pleasant stimulus is given to increase likihood of correct reponse occurring
negative reinforment
removal of an unpleast stimlus after correct response
e.g coach shouting bc player doing something wrong
then starts doing it right, unpleasaent stimukus id then removed
punishment
coach gives unplesnt stimulus to prevent incorrect action from happening again
e.g red card for foul play
observational learning
attention
retnetion
motor reporducion
motivation
atention
makind demonstartion attractive to perfomer
more attractive, more leikly to be copied
can make model stand out by making it loud,bright or attractive therefore memorable to player
re
retention
how well stored in memory to recall it
make sure demonsatrate is clear
accurate
done by real model or expert
learner should attempt it as soon as its been seen to keep it fresh in mind
motor reproduction
having the ability to do the task
making sure task is set at same level of ability as player
if begginer, amking sure time is given to go over task so stuck in head
motivation
drive needed to copy demonstration
can be helped by use of reinfrocemetn, rewrds e.g praise
