Troy University Operant and Respondent Behaviors Discussion

 

Need help with my Writing question – I’m studying for my class.

In the science of behavior analysis, there are two types of conditioning. Respondent behaviors can be thought of as reflexes that are elicited by stimuli. While operant behaviors can be thought of as behaviors that are maintained by environmental consequences and evoked by environmental stimuli.

  • In correct ABC (three-term contingency) format, provide three operant examples and explain why they are operant conditioning.
  • In correct format (NS + US = UR), provide three examples of respondent conditioning and explain why they are respondent.
