The 2nd video of the Bird Training for Beginners series and this episode is all about classical conditioning vs operant conditioning. These are both terms to describe kinds of animal training in learning theory. Classical conditioning, also known as pavlovian conditioning was first described by Ivan pavlov, and works off an animals involuntary reflexes. Operant condition, first described by B.F Skinner works through the voluntary actions and consequences of an animal. Classical condition is learning through association, but operant conditioning is learning through consequences. Consequences can either act as a reinforcer, or a punishment. Reinforcement increases a behaviour through a good experience, but punishment stops behaviours through a bad experience. These can be split into 4 categories, positive reinforcement is the addition of something, typically a reward to cause a behaviour to happen again, negative reinforcement is the removal of something to cause a behaviour to happen again. Positive punishment is the addition of something to prevent a behaviour from happening again, and negative punishment is the removal of something to prevent a behaviour from happening again.
