  • HOWEVER, you could also say that baby K's tidying behavior is simply reinforced by the praise (positive reinforcement). Negative reinforcement does not have to be present for this to be a principle of Operant conditioning.

  • You could argue for both Operant and Classical conditioning. During stage 1 of the trials that the behavior of "tidying" is the unconditioned response and the unconditioned stimulus for that behavior is the song. During stage 2 baby K makes an association between the tidy song and tidying up. Finally, the tidy song becomes a conditioned stimulus for baby K to provide the conditioned response of tidying up.

  • Well its not really operant.

  • @KnechtKalle hi there! its not? ah... i was just trying to copy how the operant conditiong works by shaping and reinforcement from "introduction to psychology by rod plotnik and haig kouyoumdjian"... why did you think its not operant? correct me? :)

  • @lelylolu I didn't think it was operant because there was no negative reinforcement (No punishment when he did it) This is classical Conditioning because you teach him to do a specific thing with only praise if he did it.

    Hope that cleared this up?

  • @SecronGlitch That's not what the difference between operant and classical conditioning is.

    Operant conditioning is a link between your behavior and an outcome (good or bad). Such as Baby K learning 'if I put the rock away, Mom will clap at me'.

    Classical conditioning is when an automatic response to one thing ends up being triggered by an associated thing, like a dog salivating at a bell because it's paired with food. It doesn't matter what response (if any) there is to the behavior.
