B.F. Skinner's Shaping Experiment (Skinner's Box)
An adherent to Watson's theory of behaviorism, B.F. Skinner was able to demonstrate how one can modify behavior through a process he called "shaping." In contrast to pure classical conditioning, Skinner utilized positive and negative reinforcement to cause behavior.
Utilizing a contraption that became known as "Skinner's Box" he demonstrated how he could shape the behavior of pigeons by reinforcing their behavior.

You don't have to be too intelligent to see how influential Skinner's work is in furthering our understanding of our selves and our relation to the world. If you think your entire way of being isn't all learned, think about the countless years of school you attended. You learned how to think under a system of dominance just like these birds. You know an ideology is strong when the governed praise the virtues of their system.

you realize this video was made in the 80s? if this "controlling" hasn't happened yet, then it won't. plus this is a lesson in my ap bio class, once something like this gets in a text book, then it won't effect anyone.
