Operant coniditioning is shown throughout the entire Bible. Operant conditioning is where we learn to associate actions with consequences. I have an assignment this week in my class that asks this question and I have a few examples I am debating about using. Jonah is one character who received a punishments for his actions and because of his punishments he decided to change his behavior. Adam and Eve is another example of operant conditioning. If you just look in the Bible a little and understand operant conditioning, you will see a lot of examples.
Operant Conditioning is also called Skinner after B.F. Skinner who created the Skinner Box.
Involuntary conditioning is associated with classical conditioning, while voluntary conditioning is associated with operant conditioning. Classical conditioning involves learning by association between stimuli, while operant conditioning involves learning by reinforcement or punishment of behaviors.
Operant conditioning was discovered by psychologist B.F. Skinner in the 1930s.
Yes! phobias are developed through classical conditioning and addictions through operant conditioning.

I believe it is Pavlov ^^ Close, but Pavlov is better associated with classical conditioning while I believe B.F. Skinner is most associated with operant conditioning.
Operant conditioning is a term used in the psychological arts. Operant conditioning is a promise of reward or praise for completing a task resulting in a decrease or increase in behaviour.
One of the many uses of operant conditioning is in an educational setting. Operant conditioning involves punishment or reward (be it positive or negative) that encourage or discourage an activity. Operant conditioning might be used to reward children for good work, making them more likely to do this work in future. It can also be used to punish misbehaving children, making them less likely to misbehave in future.
It's how rapidly an animal can be trained to a new operant behavior as a function of reinforcement.
Both classical and operant conditioning are forms of associative learning, where behavior is influenced through the process of forming associations between stimuli and responses. In classical conditioning, the association is between two stimuli, while in operant conditioning, the association is between a behavior and its consequence.
