Background of BehaviorismBackground of Behaviorism

Pavlov: Conditioned Reflex If a neutral stimulus is paired with a non-neutral

stimulus, the organism will eventually respond to the neutral stimulus as it does to the non-neutral stimulus

Watson: Began the Foundation of American Behaviorism

Background of BehaviorismBackground of Behaviorism

E.L. Thorndike: Law of Effect Responses that lead to “satisfying” consequences

are more likely to be repeated than responses that lead to “unsatisfying” consequences

B.F. Skinner: Radical Behaviorism Everything a person does, says, and feels

constitutes behavior and can be subject to experimental analysis

Assumptions of Behavioral Psychology

Assumptions of Behavioral Psychology

The task of psychology is the study of behavior

Behavior can and must be both observable and measurable

The goal of psychology is the prediction and control of behavior

The real causes of behavior may be found outside rather than inside the organism

Basic Mechanisms of LearningBasic Mechanisms of Learning

Operant Conditioning: The likelihood of a response is increased or

decreased by virtue of its consequences Contingency:

The association between action and consequences

Operant Conditioning: Reinforcement:

The process by which events in the environment increase the probability of the behavior that precede it

Operant conditioning Positive reinforcement

response followed by a consequence in the environment

Negative reinforcement avoidance or removal of an aversive stimulus

Punishment suppression of behavior by introduction of aversive

consequences

Extinction: The elimination of a response by withdrawing

whatever reinforcer was maintaining it Generalization:

An organism responds to stimuli that are similar to a previously learned stimulus

Discrimination Learning: Learning to distinguish among similar stimuli

and to respond only to the appropriate one Shaping:

The reinforcement of “successive approximations” of a desired response
