“Success does not lie in ‘RESULTS’ but in ‘EFFORTS’, ‘BEING the best is not so important,
“DOING” the best is all that matters.

1. Positive reinforcement occurs when a behaviour is strengthened as a result of receiving
a positive condition.
Negative reinforcement happens when a behaviour is strengthened as a result of
stopping or avoiding a negative condition.
Punishment works when a behaviour is weakened as a result of experiencing a negative
condition.
Extinction occurs when a behaviour is weakened as a result of not experiencing an
expected positive condition or a negative condition is stopped.
2. Positive Reinforcement is a concept of Operant conditioning that presents favourable
reinforcer, so that the subject repeats its behaviour while Negative Reinforcement is
the concept of Operant conditioning that presents certain reincorcers, which increases
the behaviour of the subject in order to avoid those reinforcers.
3. Positive punishment is an attempt to influence behaviour by adding something
unpleasant, while negative reinforcement is an attempt to influence behaviour by
taking away something unpleasant.
4. Mowrer's two-factor theory combined the learning principles of classical and operant
conditioning. Mowrer proposed that the avoidance of (or escape from) anxiety-
provoking stimuli resulted in the removal of unpleasant emotions. Thus, avoidance
becomes a reward and reinforces (increases) the behavior of avoidance.
5. Emotional Intelligence Theory is the ability to monitor one's own and
other's emotions, to discriminate among them, and to use the information to guide
one's thinking and actions.
6. Self-Awareness
Self-Regulation
Motivation
Empathy
Social Skills
7. The Little Albert experiment was a controlled experiment showing empirical evidence
of classical conditioning in humans. The study also provides an example of stimulus
generalization. It was carried out by John B. Watson and his graduate student, Rosalie
Rayner, at Johns Hopkins University.
8. The threshold method is when the stimulus can be presented indistinctly so that the
individual learns over time not to respond in the habitual manner. Guthrie postulated
that the larger the number of stimuli that created the responses, the stronger the
habit.
9. The fatigue method is quite simple, you keep presenting the stimulus until the person
with the habit no longer replies with their habitual response. Guthrie considered
this method similar to "breaking the horse."
10. The incompatible method pairs the stimuli that causes the habitual behavior with
another stimulus that triggers a response that is opposite or incompatible with the habit
that you want to get rid of.
