Operant conditioning experiment:

What is more effective, positive reinforcement or positive punishment?

Which works faster?

Was there shaping that went on?

Was the person conditioned?

Was there experimental error?

For Juniors in 3rd period:

Create your own operant conditioning experiment that can be tested on a human. Be sure to label the task to be conditioned for, the type of conditioning and reinforcement/punishment used, and the steps it might take to shape a person into this behavior.

Put this experiment into use at your home on a sibling, friend, or parent and then reflect on the process and the effectiveness of the experiment.
