Operant Conditioning which animals do something and experience a consequence. if the experience pleasurable they repeat it if not they stop doing such behavior
reinforcement consequencest that increase the likelihood that a particular action will be repeated.
positive reinforcement adding a stimulus presented immediatly after behaviour; probability of behaviour occuring INCREASES
Negative reinforcement a stimulis is removed immediatly following behaviour and behavior INCREASES
PUnishment used to DECREASE the future probability of behavior
Positive Punishment something is added after behavior to DECREASE behavior
Negative Reinforcement Something is removed immediatly after behaviour and behaviour is DECREASED
social learning humans sometimes learn not by reinforcement but by modeling; when people copy what they see others do.
self efficcacy the belief of some people that they are able to change themselves and effectively alter the social context.

sensorimotor birth-2yrs= uses senses and motor abilities do understand the world; learn that an object still exist when is out of sight
preoperational 2-6yrs:children think magically using language to understand the world, LANGUAGE; very egocentric
conrete operational 6-11yrs; logical operations. thinking is limited; understand concepts of conservation,
formal operational 12yrs-they can be logical about things they have never expereienced. ethics politics and social and mora issues become fascinationg.
