BF Skinner Foundation - Pigeon Turn

[VanchaMarch93]

Anyone know where I can get a written reference for this experiment?

Trying to write an essay for uni, and this would be perfect to include.

@VanchaMarch93 he preforms the same experiment in 'Skinner, B.F. (1947). Superstition of the pigeon. Journal of Experimental Psychology, 38, 168-172. '

[Rayez08]

are you guys serious? He is reinforcing approximations of the target behaviors which in this example is turning around counter clockwise. The textbook definition of shaping is reinforcement of successive approximations to a desried behavior to teach a new behavior. Chaining is more of teaching in chunks when one chunk serves as a prompt for another behavior. Think washing your hands, you need to learn to do one set of behaviors before you can do the next set
