Three Theories of Learning

Learning encompasses various methods through which individuals acquire new behaviors or knowledge, often resulting from experience. Social or observational learning is a process where individuals mimic behaviors they observe in others, a concept popularized by Albert Bandura through his Bobo Doll experiment.

How?

Bobo Doll

Learning that occurs when a person observes and imitates someone else's behaviour

Operant Conditioning

John Watson
Learning in which consequences for behaviour, changes the likelihood that the behaviour will occur in the future
Requires some kind of consequence
Consequences: Positive Reinforcement- adds stimuli, increase behaviour Negative Reinforcement- removes stimuli, increase behaviour Positive Punishment- adds stimuli, decrease behaviour Negative Punishment - removes stimuli, decrease behaviour
Two types of reinforcements
Partial Reinforcement - reinforcement for every occurence of the targeted behaviour Continuous Reinforcement - reinforcement that is occasional or intermittent
Operant Conditioning requires a schedule
Schedule: Fixed-Ratio Variable- Ratio Fixed Interval Variable Interval
Skinners pigeons and rats

Learning Definition: A relatively permanent change in behaviour or knowledge that occurs through experience

Classical Conditioning

Must require:
Unconditioned Stimuli Unconditioned Response Conditioned Stimuli Conditioned Response
Who?
Pavlov
Definition
Learning in which one connects an automatic response to an external stimuli
