Detailed explanation-1: -Classical and operant conditioning are both similar because they involve making association between behaviour and events in an organism’s environment and are governed by several general laws of association-for example, it is easier to associate stimuli that are similar to each other and that occur at similar times.
Detailed explanation-2: -The main difference between classical and operant conditioning is that classical conditioning associates involuntary behavior with a stimulus while operant conditioning associates voluntary action with a consequence. Classical and operant conditioning are two central concepts in behavioral psychology.
Detailed explanation-3: -Classical and operant conditioning are usually studied separately. But outside of the laboratory they almost always occur at the same time.
Detailed explanation-4: -The main similarity between the two types of conditioning is that they both result in learning. However, the mechanisms of the two processes are quite different. Specifically, each behavior deals with a different kind of response (Cooper et al., 2019).
Detailed explanation-5: -What is the distinction between classical conditioning and operant conditioning? Classical conditioning involves learning based on associations, and operant conditioning involves learning based on consequences.
