Behaviourism- B.F. Skinner style • Positive reinforcement of desired behaviour will result in it happening again- learning theory
Important aspects of Operant Conditioning • Reinforcement must follow the desired response • Once learned, desired behavioursshould continue without the need for the reward • Occasionally reinforcing the behaviour (partial reinforcement) is very effective (slot machines) and will lead subject to keep trying behaviour more and more to get expected reward. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUwCgFSb6Nk (7:34) ‘BF Skinners Operant Conditioning Chamber: SaieedHasnoo’
