Operant Conditioning
Operant conditioning involves learning through the consequences of behavioural responses.
First investigated by Thorndike using cats, chickens and puzzle boxes later Skinner.
Thorndike investigated the performance of cats placed in 'puzzle boxes'.
These consisted of boxes with one side made of slats through which the cats could see some fish placed outside.
The slatted wall had a door in it which could be opened by operating a lever within the box, such as a treadle on the floor.
Thorndike recorded how long it took for the cat to escape from the box and get at the food.
Thorndike (1911).
