Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Operant conditioning is a type of learning in which the behavior is followed by a consequence, either a reinforcement or a punishment, leading to an increase or decrease in the likelihood of that behavior occurring again in the future. Classical conditioning (A) is a form of learning in which a neutral stimulus is paired with a stimulus that naturally elicits a response, leading to the association between the two stimuli and the ability of the neutral stimulus to elicit the same response. Observational learning (C) occurs when the individual learns by observing and imitating the behavior of others, without necessarily experiencing the consequences themselves. Imitation (D) is the act of copying the behavior of others, but it doesn't necessarily involve learning from the consequences.
