- Conditioning (Behavioral)
- Skinner's operant-conditioning paradigm (1938, 1953): pigeon key-pecking in the operant chamber. A hungry pigeon placed in a box with a response key and food hopper learns to peck the key (operant response).

Mechanisms¶
- Environmental Cue Change
- This is stimulus control: arranging the surrounding conditions so a cue no longer sets the occasion for the old behavior and a new cue does.
This sourceExplains stimulus control through discriminative cues that set the occasion for behavior under differential reinforcement.
