Unit 2 Learning

This document discusses individual learning and behavior modification. It defines learning and describes several learning theories, including classical conditioning, operant conditioning, and cognitive and social learning theories. It discusses principles of learning like motivation, reinforcement, punishment, and extinction. It also covers types of reinforcement schedules and how behavior modification uses reinforcement concepts to change behaviors in work settings through a five step problem solving model.

Learning

 “The process of acquiring,
assimilating and
internalizing cognitive,
motor or behavioral inputs
for their effective and
varied use when required,
leading to an enhanced
capability for further self
motivated learning”

change in behavior that
occurs as a result of

Learning from Classical Operant


Conditioning conditioning
It states an event Can be called as
repeated several times instrumental conditioning
evokes desired
It refers to the process
behavior. that our behavior
produces certain
consequences and how we
behave in the future will
depend on what these
consequences are.

Prof.Lata Singh 4/28/20


Operant conditioning
9
B.F. Skinner
Experimented on a
mouse
It emphasizes voluntary
behavior

Prof.Lata Singh 4/28/20


Cognitive learning
10

Cognitive process assumes that people are


conscious, active participants in how they learn.

Social Learning theory

It emphasizes
Attention
the ability of an
individual to
Retention
learn by
observing others
Practice

Motivation

Principles of Learning
12

Motivation

Reinforcement,
Punishment and
extinction

Prof.Lata Singh 4/28/20


Types of reinforcement
13

Positive reinforcement
 Providing a reward for a desired behavior.
Negative reinforcement
 Removing an unpleasant consequence when the desired
behavior occurs.
Punishment
 Applying an undesirable condition to eliminate an undesirable
behavior.
Extinction
 Withholding reinforcement of a behavior to cause its cessation.

Prof.Lata Singh 4/28/20


Principles of Reinforcement
14

Principle of Contingent reinforcement


Immediate reinforcement
Reinforcement size
Reinforcement deprivation

Prof.Lata Singh 4/28/20


Schedules of reinforcement
15

Continuous Reinforcement - A desired behavior is


reinforced each time it is demonstrated.
Intermittent Reinforcement- A desired behavior is
reinforced often enough to make the behavior worth
repeating but not every time it is demonstrated.
Fixed-Interval Schedule- Rewards are spaced at
uniform time intervals.
Variable-Interval Schedule- Rewards are initiated
after a fixed or constant number of responses.
