There are three Behavioral Learning Theories. In general, Behavioral Theorists focus on
observable behavior. One theory of learning based on behavior is Pavlovian Conditioning
or Classical Conditioning. This involves a reflexive response associated with a new
stimulus. For example, a reflexive response of a dog when he sees food is to salivate. In
Classical Pavlovian Conditioning, we can teach a dog to salivate when a bell rings, a new
stimulus, by teaching a dog to associate a ringing bell with food. Another Behavioral
Learning Theory is Observational Learning. This occurs when behavior is imitated by
another. This behavior is easily seen in children as they imitate parental behavior whether
it is desired behavior or not. For example, if children hear parents swear in a moment of
anger, it is not unusual to hear children add those words to their burgeoning vocabulary. A
third Behavioral Learning Theory is called Operant Conditioning. This involves taking a
voluntary response, desired behavior, and strengthen it using reinforcements. Potty training
a child as an example. Parents will praise a child, offer candy or other rewards to encourage
repeated toilet use.
