Detailed explanation-1: -Both classical and operant conditioning are forms of associative learning where associations are made between events that occur together.
Detailed explanation-2: -Some more examples of unconditioned responses include: Gasping in pain after being stung by a bee. Jerking your hand back after touching a hot plate on the oven. Jumping at the sound of a loud noise.
Detailed explanation-3: -Perhaps the most famous example of conditioned reinforcement is Ivan Pavlov’s experiments with dogs. Pavlov paired food, a primary reinforcer that causes dogs to salivate, with a bell. Whenever Pavlov would present the dogs with food, he would sound the bell.
Detailed explanation-4: -A positive reinforcer is any stimulus that, when presented after a response, strengthens the response.
