Behaviorism

Characteristics

This theory is sometimes called stimulus-response theory. It incorporates a lot of Pavlov's classical conditioning theory. When Pavlov rang a bell, he would feed dogs. Eventually, the dogs would began to salivate at just the sound of the bell even if there was no food. Human behavior can be explained by conditioning and what can be observed. The learning process is a passive activity as the primary influence is environmental factors (Nagowah & Nogowah, 2009).
