Detailed explanation-1: -The question arises as to whether it is possible to reverse the learning process and unlearn a behavior. This process is called extinction and it can be used to unlearn classical or operant conditioned behavior [3].
Detailed explanation-2: -Operant behavior is behavior “controlled” by its consequences. In practice, operant conditioning is the study of reversible behavior maintained by reinforcement schedules. We review empirical studies and theoretical approaches to two large classes of operant behavior: interval timing and choice.
Detailed explanation-3: -Positive reinforcement occurs when the removal of an aversive or unpleasant stimulus following an emitted behavior strengthens the occurrence of the behavior.
Detailed explanation-4: -Operant conditioning, also called instrumental conditioning, is a learning process where behaviors are modified through the association of stimuli with reinforcement or punishment.
