CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Classical conditioning deals with involuntary responses or behaviour, whereas operant conditioning deals with voluntary behaviour. Salivation isn’t a voluntary behaviour, as dogs can’t willfully choose when they salivate.

Detailed explanation-2: -Operant conditioning differs from classical conditioning, which is a process where stimuli are paired with biologically significant events to produce involuntary and reflexive behaviors. In contrast, operant conditioning is voluntary and depends on the consequences of a behavior.

Detailed explanation-3: -Organism is rewarded for a response made only after a set interval of time. It is only at the expiry of the fixed interval that he is presented with some reinforcement. Given correct responses during this fixed interval of time does not matter. Example: 3 minutes or 5 minutes.
