Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Operant conditioning involves learning through the consequences of voluntary behavior. The individual learns to repeat behaviors that are reinforced or rewarded, and to avoid behaviors that result in punishment or negative consequences. Classical conditioning, on the other hand, involves learning through associations between two stimuli, such as Pavlov's dogs associating the sound of a bell with the arrival of food. Effective based learning and spontaneous recovery are not relevant to the question of voluntary behavior.
