classical conditioning and our motives
operant conditioning 
(instrumental conditioning) 
an organism operates on its environment to produce a change (Leahey & Harris, 2001). 
• reinforcers. 
• schedules of reinforcers.
reinforcers 
a stimulus or event that strengthens or weakens the behavior 
that produced it. 
Burrhus Frederic Skinner (1904 – 1990). 
Skinner Box
reinforcers: positive & negative. 
positive reinforcer: 
• presented after target response. 
• increase the ability the response 
will occur again. 
negative reinforcer: 
• removed after target response. 
• increase the likelihood that the 
response will occur again.
schedules of reinforcers 
show the rate of responding in a series of operant 
conditioning trials. 
• continuous reinforcement: given a reinforcement after each 
target response occurs. 
• intermittent reinforcement (partial reinforcement): with two main 
types ratio and interval.
intermittent reinforcement
schedules of reinforcers 
show the rate of responding in a series of operant 
conditioning trials. 
• continuous reinforcement will result in fast acquisition, but it is more 
susceptible to extinction. 
• intermittent reinforcement will result in slower acquisition, but is 
more resistant to extinction. 
Variable Ratio schedules tend to produce 
the highest rates of responding.
punishment: 
the opposite of reinforcement. 
less effective than positive reinforcement
cognitive and social 
perceptives on learning 
• the role of cognition. 
• observational learning.
the role of cognition 
• insight learning: sudden grasp of a concept or the solution to 
a problem that result from perceptual restructuring; typically 
characterized by an immediate change in behavior. 
• latent learning: learning that has occurred but is not 
demonstrated.
observational learning

Editor's Notes

  • #11 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DcIGIxgWwu8
  • #14 Skinner is regarded as the father of Operant Conditioning.
  • #15 Positive reinforcers: food, water, money, and praise that are presented after target response. Negative reinforcers: rates of detection and punishment are very low, cheating rates may be very high. Listen to music to remove boredom.
  • #17 FR: rapid responding, short pauses, higher ratios generate higher response rates. VR: high, steady rate without pauses, higher ratios generate higher response rates. FI: long pause after reinforcements yields “scalloping” effect, shorter intervals generate higher rates overall. VI: low, steady rate without pauses, shorter intervals generate higher rates overall.
