A simple explanation of classical and operant conditioning

De Pere WI

Description

Simply put, our brains are associating machines. We associate things with each other so that we can learn about our world and make better decisions. For example, when you accidentally touch a hot stove, you feel pain and pull your arm back quickly. When this happens, you learn that ‘touching a hot stove is dangerous’. Because you have this ability to learn, you associate the ‘hot stove’ with ‘pain’ and you try your best to avoid this behavior in the future. Explanation, this is what the democrats are processing now. Be nice to your democrat loved one. They may be a slow learner.
