Problem
As behavior analysts, we frequently use operant conditioning to teach new behaviors (and eliminate old behaviors) by manipulating the consequences that follow them. Respondent conditioning is also used by behavior analysts, for example, by establishing various reinforcers through pairing of stimuli.
For this problem, complete the following:
1) Define operant and respondent conditioning.
2) Describe the similarities and differences between these two types of learning.
3) Provide two real-world, detailed examples of operant conditioning and two real-world, detailed examples of respondent conditioning.
The response should include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space and APA style of writing and citations.
