    Behaviorism is a learning theory established in 1913 that focuses on how the environment shapes observable behaviors through conditioning. It proposes that all behaviors are learned through interaction with the environment and that inherited factors have little influence. The two main processes of learning are classical and operant conditioning. Behaviorism is concerned with observable and measurable behaviors and believes behaviors can be unlearned and replaced with new behaviors. In education, behaviorism uses reinforcement and punishment to influence student behavior.

    TITLE OF TOPIC IN CAPITAL LETTERS

    BEHAVIORISM

    Prepared by:

    IMELDA G. BUSCAS
    Student
    Behaviorism is formally established by John Watsons in 1913 and
    considered as the "Father of Behaviorism". Behaviorism or the behavioral
    learning theory is a popular concept that focuses on how students learn.
    Behaviorism focuses on the idea that all behaviors are learned through
    interaction with the environment.

    Behaviorism, also known as behavioral psychology, is a theory of


    learning based on the idea that all behaviors are acquired and learned through
    interaction with the environment through a process called Conditioning.
    Conditioning occurs through interaction with the environment. Thus,
    behavior is simply a response to environmental stimuli. Behaviorists believe
    that our responses to environmental stimuli shape our actions.
    Perspective
    The behaviorist perspective is concerned with how environmental factors
    (called stimuli) affect observable behavior (called the response). The behaviorist
    perspective proposes two main processes whereby people learn from their
    environment: namely Classical Conditioning and Operant Conditioning.
    Both classical conditioning and operant conditioning are processes that
    lead to learning. Classical Conditioning pairs two stimuli, while Operant
    Conditioning pairs behavior and response.
    School and Education
    Behaviorism can also be thought as a form of classroom management.
    Behaviorist believes that if teachers provide positive reinforcement, or rewards,
    whenever students perform a desired behavior, they will learn to perform the
    behavior on their own. The same concept applies to punishments.
    A common example of behaviorism in schools is positive reinforcement.
    A student gets a small treat if they get 100% on spelling test. In the
    future, students work hard and study for their test in order to get the reward.
    Behaviorism is key for educators because it impacts how students react
    and behave in the classroom, and suggests that teachers can directly influence
    how their students behave. It also helps teachers understand that a student’s
    home environment and lifestyle can be impacting their behavior, helping them
    see it objectively and work to assist with improvement.
    Approach
    The Behavioral Approach. Human behavior is learned; thus, all behavior
    can be unlearned and new behaviors learned in its place. Behaviorism is
    concerned primarily with the observable and measurable aspects of human
    behavior. Therefore, when behaviors become unacceptable, they can be
    unlearned.
    Belief
    Behaviorism emphasizes the role of environmental factors in influencing
    behavior to the near exclusion of innate or inherited factors. This amounts
    essentially to focus on learning. We learn new behavior though Classical or
    Operant Conditioning.
    What is Behaviorism Theory?
    Behaviorism focuses on the idea that all behaviors are learned through
    interaction with the environment. This learning theory states that behaviors
    are learned from the environment and says that inherited factors have very
    little influence on behavior.
    What is an example of Behaviorism?
    An example of behaviorism is when teachers reward their class or certain
    students with a party or special treat at the end of the week for the good
    behavior throughout the week. The same concept is used with punishment.
    The teacher can take away privileges if the student misbehaves.
    What are the Key Concepts of Behaviorism?
    Key concepts of behaviorism comprise the stimulus-response (S-R)
    equation. The classical and operant conditioning and the reinforcement and
    punishment notions.
    What is the goal of Behaviorism?
    The goal of behaviorism is to study human nature in terms of observable
    behavior. It states that the physical actions and decisions taken by a person in
    response or stimuli are the true representatives of personality.
    How behaviorism used today?
    Behavioral psychology or behaviorism is a theory suggesting that
    environment shapes human behavior. It is still used by mental health
    professional today as the concepts and theories remain relevant in fields like
    psychotherapy and education.
    In the classroom, the behavioral learning theory is key in understanding
    how to motivate and help students. Information is transferred from teachers to
    learners from a response to the right stimulus. Students are a passive
    participant in behavioral learning—teachers are giving them the information as
    an element of stimulus-response.
    Teachers use behaviorism to show students how they should react and
    respond to certain stimuli. This needs to be done in a repetitive way, to
    regularly remind students what behavior a teacher is looking for.
    An obvious advantage of behaviorism is its ability to define
    behavior clearly and to measure changes in behavior.
    That, according to the law of Parsimony, “the fewer assumptions a theory
    makes, the better and the more credible it is”
