6. SCHOOL OF
THOUGHT
BEHAVIORISM THEORY
Reseach for Behaviorism Theory
In the early 1930s at Harvard University, B. F. Skinner carried out a series of
carefully controlled and inductively oriented experiments on the behavior of
individual laboratory rats (e.g., Skinner, 1938, 1956). These experiments served
as the basis of the scientific field later called “the experimental analysis of
behavior.” As the field developed over the years, a system of science developed
with it. Behaviorism is a perspective on learning that focuses on changes in
individuals' observable behaviors—changes in what people say or do. ... If you
are teaching, you will need to attend to all forms of learning in students, whether
inner or outward.
