11 Behavioralist
1.1 IntroductionBehaviorism, as a learning theory, can be traced back to Aristotle, whose essay "Memory"
focused on associations being made between events such as lightning and thunder. Other philosophers that followed Aristotle"s thoughts are Hobbes (1650), Hume (1740), Brown (1820), Bain (1855) and Ebbinghause (1885) (Black, 1995). Ivan Pavlov, John B. Watson, Edward Thorndike and B.F. Skinner later developed the theory in more detail. Watson is the theorist credited with coining the term "behaviorism"1. A key difference in these various forms of associationism is that until Skinner, they were considered to be associations of mental or cognitive events. Skinner departed from this mental associationism and claimed that what associates two things is the environment itself, not the mind of the spectator2. This departure has been noted as being part of a substantial number of changes in what was, until then, called Behaviorism - and which Skinner called Radical Behaviorism - that it may be a historical accident that it was called Behaviorism at all3.1.2 Behaviorism as a learning theory
The school of adult learning theory that adopted these principles has become known as the school of Behaviorism, which saw learning as a complex process of responses to several kinds of distinct stimuli. Skinner always referred to it as a three-term contingency comprised of a discriminative stimuli, or Sd, a response, or R, and a reinforcing stimulus, or Srein. Conditions of deprivation and satiation, and other changes in the environment, have come to be generally acknowledged p[?as a kind of fourth term, and are denoted as Motivating Operations (MO) generally, Abolishing Operations (AO), or Establishing Operations (EO) depending on whether they make a reinforcer less effective (abolishing), more effective (establishing) and so on. Jack Michael has been instrumental in refining and exploring these elements4 A reinforcement is defined as a stimulus that strengthen the response, which is to say that it makes it more probable, or alters its frequency. Spillane (2002) states, "the behaviorist perspective, associated with B. F. Skinner, holds that the mind at work cannot be observed,1 Watson, John Broadus,Psychology as the Behaviorist Views It, 1913http://psychclassics.yorku. ca/Watson/views.htmˆ{http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/} http://""2 Skinner, B.F.About Behaviorismp.43

of knowing, teaching, and learning" (p. 380).1.3 The Technology of Teaching
There have been several major Behaviorist innovations for improving learning. A few were B.F. Skinner?s Programmed Instruction, Fred Keller?s Personalized System of Instruction (PSI)5, Ogden Lindsley?s Precision Teaching6, and others. B.F. Skinner also wrote a book on major problems in popular teaching theories called The Technology of Teachingwhich attacked educational problems which were then current. The descriptions of educational problems, not surprisingly, seems like it was written today: truancy, vandalism, violence in the classroom and more. One of the keys to effective teaching is discovering the best consequence to shape the behavior. Consequences can be positive or negative - rewarding or punishing. Consequences transpire after the desired behavior occurs and can involve either positive or negative reinforcement. Positive reinforcementinvolves a stimulus that increases the likelihood of a particular response, such as a child receiving a gold star for doing a chore.Negative reinforcement also increases the probability of the desired response and involves removing an undesirable stimulus upon completion of the desired response. An example might be entering the correct password to turn off a loud alarm.Punishmentis often confused with negative reinforcement; however, punishment is used toeraseundesirable behaviors by presenting a distressing stimulus when the behavior occurs. Paying a fine for bouncing a check is a form of punishment. "Extinction" occurs when there is no consequence at all - for example if you knock at the door and no one answers, pretty soon you simply stop knocking (Zemke, 2002).1.4 Verbal Behavior
The seminal work of Pavlov demonstrated that the application of neutral stimuli could be used to elicit a response from animals in the same way that an unconditioned stimulus could7From these initial studies other psychologists such as John Watson demonstrated that these
principles could be applied to humans (Cheetham & Chivers, 2001)8. Skinner invented the termoperantto describe his attempt to better account for volitional behavior we usually call free9. In Skinner?s original work it was confined solely to animals, particularly the white rat. However, it wasn?t long before operant behavior was observed in humans. Skinner?s attempt to account for the operant behavior of humans, including complex language functions, resulted in his seminal work, Verbal Behavior (1951) which accounted for ways in which5 Keller, F.
