The difference of Skinner’s theory VS Pavlov’s theory
👦🏻Skinner’s Operant Conditioning:
Focus: the concept of reinforcement and punishment.
Process: Behavior is shaped through consequences (reinforcements and punishments).
Key Terms: Positive reinforcement (rewarding desired behavior), negative reinforcement (removing an aversive stimulus to increase behavior), and punishment (discouraging unwanted behavior).
Example: In operant conditioning, if a student is given praise for good grades, they are more likely to continue studying and getting good grades.
👧🏻Pavlov’s Classical Conditioning:
Focus: the association of stimuli with involuntary responses.
Process: A neutral stimulus is paired with an unconditioned stimulus to create a conditioned response.
Key Terms: Unconditioned stimulus (naturally triggers a response), unconditioned response (natural response to the stimulus), conditioned stimulus (neutral stimulus associated with the unconditioned stimulus), and conditioned response (learned response to the conditioned stimulus).
Example: In classical conditioning, if a bell (conditioned stimulus) is repeatedly rung before giving a dog food (unconditioned stimulus), the dog eventually salivates (conditioned response) at the sound of the bell alone.
To sum up, Skinner’s operant conditioning focuses on the consequences of behavior (rewards and punishments) to shape future actions, while Pavlov’s classical conditioning is about creating associations between stimuli and involuntary responses. Skinner deals with voluntary behaviors, while Pavlov deals with automatic, reflexive responses.
