Back to Basics:
Operant conditioning forms an association between a behavior and consequence. Shout out to B.F. Skinner.
🐶 Positive Reinforcement: Something rewarding begins; behavior increases.
🐶 Negative Reinforcement: Something unpleasant ends; behavior increases.
🐶 Positive Punishment: Something unpleasant begins; behavior decreases.
🐶 Negative Punishment: Something rewarding ends; behavior decreases.
Reinforcement increases the behavior, and punishment decreases
behavior.
