Week 5 Behavioural Approach
In 50's in response to the psychoanalytic approaches
classical learning -process by which experience or practise results in a relatively permanent change in behaviour
Pavlov - classical conditioning CS conditioned stimulus food- unconditioned response salvivating
Skinner - box - rat
operant learning or instrumental conditioning
organism learns to engage in a target behaviour because such as behaviour is reinforced.
learned response with consequence
Thorndike - Law of Effect - response lead to desired effect are repeated,those that lead to undesirable are not done again.
Operant Behaviour - voluntary/complex responses that are reinforced
Positive reinforcement
Primary Reinforcer
Food, water sex
Secondary Reinforcer
Learned eg money
Operant reinforcer -any event that follows a target response, and increases the frequency, or probability of the desired response or target behaviour
Shaping - a procedure for teaching complex (operant) behaviours that at first reinforces approximations to the target behaviour
Successive Approximations - behaviours that are closer to the targeted behaviour.
Negative reinforcement
do bad things - like torture
Principle Satiation
If rat is well fed it will not train, must be something that they want, must continue to want the reward,
Principle if Contingency
response must be reliable
Principle of Size
Is it worth it? the reward must be worth the effort
Steps
Step 1
Identify organise to be conditioned
Step 2
Identify the goal, complex/voluntary behaviour, needs to be learned in successive steps
Step 3
Identify the Operant Reforcer (positive/negative) make sure you choose a desired reinforcer, be aware of the possible for satiation
