Burrhus Frederic (B.F.) Skinner (1904 - 1990)
• Burrhus Frederic Skinner majored in literature at Hamilton College in New York.
• He worked in the lab of an experimental biologist, however, and developed behavioural studies of rats.
• He loved building Rube Goldberg contraptions as a child; he put that skill to use by designing boxes to automatically reward behaviour, such as depressing a lever, pushing a button, and so on.
• His devices were such an improvement on the existing equipment, they've come to be known as Skinner boxes.
