Table : TABLE 2.2Three Types of Learning Behaviorism is also called learning theory because it emphasizes the learning process, as shown here.
| Type of Learning | Learning Process | Result |
|---|
| Classical Conditioning | Learning occurs through association. | Neutral stimulus becomes conditioned response. |
| Operant Conditioning | Learning occurs through reinforcement and punishment. | Weak or rare responses becomes strong, frequent responses—or, with punishment, become extinct. |
| Social Learning | Learning occurs through modeling what others do. | Observed behaviors become copied behaviors. |
