Answer:

B. Operant conditioning

Read Explanation:

Operant conditioning is a learning method that uses rewards and punishments to modify behavior. It's also known as instrumental conditioning. 

Here are some key concepts of operant conditioning: 

  • Reinforcers

    Strengthen behaviors that lead to them. For example, giving a dog a treat after it learns a trick is a positive reinforcer. 

  • Punishers

    Weaken behaviors that lead to them. For example, removing a dog from the couch is a negative punisher. 

  • Consequences

    Can be positive, negative, or neutral. They shape future behavior by increasing or decreasing the likelihood of a behavior recurring. 

  • Consistency

    Consistency and clarity in applying consequences is crucial for effective operant conditioning. 

B.F. Skinner coined the term in 1937. His theory was based on the idea that the consequences of a behavior determine the possibility of it being repeated. 

Operant conditioning differs from classical conditioning, which is a process where stimuli are paired with biologically significant events to produce involuntary behaviors
