Shaping and the Skinner box
A skinner box -inside the box, the rat presses a bar for a food reward. outide, a measuring device records the animals accumulated responses.
The idea of shaping a behavior is that you can not just put a rat in a box and expect that he will just know to press the bar. Just like we cant drop you into Calculus and expect you to be sucessful. We need to reinforce/reward behaviors that build up to the desired behavior. So we reward the Rat for going to the bar. We reward you for passing Math 101. If you fail Math 101 you would be less likely to want to keep going to Calculus, if it is easy and you enjoy it (positive consequence) then you would take Algera and so on until you get to Calculus.
Thorndike's Princeples - behaviors followed by favorable consequences become more likely, and behaviors followed by negative consequences become less likely.
