Behaviourism is an aspect which describes the changes in behaviour of an individual.
Operant conditioning is the theory that states the relation between education and behaviour changes.
The research about this theory of learning was done with animals. B. F. Skinner, a pioneer observed the behavior of laboratory rats . He would put them in a cage that contained little except a lever and a small tray just big enough to hold a small amount of food. At first the rat would sniff and “putter around” the cage at random, but sooner or later it would happen upon the lever and eventually happen to press it. Presto! The lever released a small pellet of food, which the rat would promptly eat. Gradually the rat would spend more time near the lever and press the lever more frequently, getting food more frequently. Eventually it would spend most of its time at the lever and eating its fill of food. The rat had “discovered” that the result of pressing the lever was to receive food. Skinner called the changes in the rat’s behavior an example of operant conditioning, and gave special names to the different parts of the process. He called the food pellets the reinforcement and the lever-pressing the operant (because it “operated” on the rat’s environment).
eg:A kindergarten child raises her hand in response to the teacher’s question about a story (the operant). The teacher calls on her and she makes her comment (the reinforcement).
what are the theory or concepts associated with education and behavior changes?
The application of theory to changing health behavior warrants the full mastery and application of certain fundamental theoretical concepts. Outline and discuss five of these concepts and expand on why you think the education-based approach does not always work. What type of theory concept appeals to you right now, and why?
explain in concepts and theory How it changes or affects the direction of the engine in a pneumatic or electro pneumatic system.
Students will research and explore one behavior change theory or models used in health education/promotion and incorporate it into a basic health education intervention. The paper should explain the theory, its components and how it is being applied in the educational intervention to change a negative behavior based on the American College Health Association’s (ACHA) National College Health Assessment results. Short- and long-term goals should also be included. This data set will be used in place of a needs assessment...
