BEHAVIORISM
THORNDIKE (1847 – 1949)
Main features
Any behavior that is followed by pleasant consequences is likely to be repeated or strengthened and any behavior followed by unpleasant consequences is likely to be slowed, but not stopped
Experiment
To prove this, Thorndike conducted an experiment to a cat. The cat was placed inside a box called the Puzzle Box. This puzzle is a situation of stimulating small stimulus to react to escape and get the food that is at the door.
2 main things that encourage the emergence of the phenomenon of learning from the cat are the situation of a hungry cat and the presence of food in front of the puzzle box that leads to the cat successfully open the puzzle box.

Pavlov (1849 – 1936)
Main Features
Learning is about behavior change. This means that the success or failure of learning can only be decided from the end result of the learning.
Experiment
Pavlov conducted an experiment using dogs.
He gave food to the dogs, he rang the bell. Then, repeating this procedure, he tried ringing the bell without providing food to the dogs. On its own, an increase in salivation occurred. The result of the experiment was a new conditioned response in the dogs.

B. F. Skinner is one of America's most influential psychologists. As a behaviourist, he developed the theory of operant conditioning.
RELEVANCE OF HUMAN'S LEARNINGI can all think of how our behaviour has been affected by reinforcers and punishers.
- reinforcement: will followed by reward
- reinforcement: will eliminate the adverse stimulus
