Detailed explanation-1: -In operant conditioning, a dog is taught to offer a behavior, such as a sit, after being given a cue but before it is given food. In this example, the dog learns that hearing or seeing the cue for “sit” (antecedent / stimulus) + the act of sitting (voluntary behavior) = food (consequence).
Detailed explanation-2: -Q. When Fido the dog sits, he gets a treat. What kind of learning probably established this behavior? operant conditioning.
Detailed explanation-3: -When we are training our dogs, we generally use a process called operant conditioning. This is when the dog’s behavior determines the consequence. For example, the dog sits when you ask and you give him a treat. The dog sitting made the treat happen.
