CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Classical conditioning has its roots in behaviorism. Behaviorism measures observable behaviors and events (Watson, 1913; Watson 1924). John B. Watson, like Pavlov, investigated conditioned neutral stimuli eliciting reflexes in respondent conditioning (Watson & Rayner, 1920).

Detailed explanation-2: -The two major assumptions of the social learning theory include the theories of classical conditioning and operant conditioning. Classical conditioning (or Pavlovian conditioning) is the theory that people learn by association, through the simple pattern of stimulus and response.

Detailed explanation-3: -Behaviorism and social learning theory. The social learning theory agrees with the behavioral learning theory about outside influences on behavior. However, the social learning theory goes a step further and suggests that internal psychological processes are also an influence on behavior.

Detailed explanation-4: -Operant conditioning was first described by behaviorist B.F. Skinner, which is why you may occasionally hear it referred to as Skinnerian conditioning.1 As a behaviorist, Skinner believed that it was not really necessary to look at internal thoughts and motivations in order to explain behavior.
