What Is Learning?What Is Learning?
LearningLearning is a relatively permanent change in human capabilities that is not a result of growth processes.Learning - any process through which experience at one time can alter an individual’s behavior at a future time

Theories of Learning
Classical Conditioning A type of conditioning in which an individual
responds to some stimulus that would not ordinarily produce such a response.
Operant Conditioning + Reinforcement theory A type of conditioning in which desired voluntary
behavior leads to a reward or prevents a punishment.
Social-Learning Theory People can learn through observation and direct experience.

Stimulus
1-Neutral Stimulus-Bell-Does not normally elicit a response or reflex action by itself
A bell ringing, 2-Unconditioned Stimulus—Food
Always elicits a reflex action: an unconditioned response
Food, 3-Unconditioned Response—Salivation
A response to an unconditioned stimulus— naturally occurring
Salivation at smell of food,

STIMULUS _Cont
After learning took place
4-Conditioned Stimulus—Bell The stimulus that was originally neutral becomes
conditioned after it has been paired with the unconditioned stimulus. Will elicit the unconditioned response by itself
5-Conditioned Response The original unconditioned response becomes
conditioned after it has been elicited by the neutral stimulus

Operant Conditioning
Operant conditioning takes place all around us in our homes, as well as the workplace. Parents use rewards, or operant conditioning to get their children to do their homework.
• Type of learning in which behavior isstrengthened if followed by reinforcement ordiminished if followed by punishment
![Page 10: LEARNING Resource Material By Prof Namita Gupta. 2 What Is Learning? Learning Learning is a relatively permanent change in human capabilities that is.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649cf85503460f949c8ea2/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)

HISTORY OF OPERANT CONDITIONING
• Famous behavioral psychologist, followed Thorndike in using animals to investigate operant conditioning.
• Skinner Box: constructed a box with a lever inside- when an animal pressed the lever, a food pellet fell out of a feeder into the box, Skinner wanted to see if rats placed in the box could learn to press the lever in order to receive the food.

SKINNER‘s Experiment
Behaviorism -The attempt to understand observable activity in terms of observable stimuli and observable responses
Early Operant Conditioning- learning in which voluntary response are controlled by consequences

Reinforcement Theory Reinforcement Theory
Emphasizes that people are motivated to perfor or avoid certain behaviors because of past outcomes that have resulted from those behaviors
Response consequences that increase likelihood of responding in a similar way again. positive reinforcement negative reinforcement Punishment extinction
It used the fundamental of operant theory in practical practice

Shaping: A Managerial Tool
Systematically reinforcing each successive step that moves an individual closer to the desired response.
Four Methods of Shaping Behavior: Positive reinforcement
Providing a reward for a desired behavior (learning) Negative reinforcement
Removing an unpleasant consequence when the desired behavior occurs (learning)
PunishmentApplying an undesirable condition to eliminate an
undesirable behavior (“unlearning”) Extinction
Withholding reinforcement of a behavior to cause its cessation (“unlearning”)
![Page 15: LEARNING Resource Material By Prof Namita Gupta. 2 What Is Learning? Learning Learning is a relatively permanent change in human capabilities that is.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649cf85503460f949c8ea2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Reinforcement- Consequences of behaviour
Positive reinforcement: An event’s presentation following a response increases the future probability of that response. Ex-Praising for a good sales performance by the boss.
Negative reinforcement: An event’s removal following a response increases the future probability of that response. Ex – Reduction or elimination of the future supervision/ Scolding by the boss after responsible work performances from employees.
Punishment- The process by which a stimulus or event weakens or reduces the probability of the response that it follows. Ex-Beating to a thief after being caught by the police.
Extinction-Making one forget the present response. Ex- Lack of attention paid by colleagues on another salesman who makes jokes over customers

17
Schedules of Reinforcement
Two Major Types: Continuous Reinforcement- A desired behavior is reinforced each
time it is demonstrated- EX 1 to 1 ratio, a prize every time Intermittent Reinforcement-A desired behavior is reinforced often
enough to make the behavior worth repeating but not every time it is demonstrated or in Multiple frequencies
Ex- Ratio fixed: 1prize for each race Variable: maybe a prize, maybe not!
Interval fixed: announced examination after every 1 month variable: pop quiz any time
![Page 18: LEARNING Resource Material By Prof Namita Gupta. 2 What Is Learning? Learning Learning is a relatively permanent change in human capabilities that is.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649cf85503460f949c8ea2/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
18
Types of Intermittent Reinforcement
Ratio Depends on the number of
responses made. Interval
Depends on the time between reinforcements.
Fixed Rewards are spaced at uniform time
intervals or after a set number of responses.
Variable Rewards that are unpredictable or
that vary relative to the behavior.

Classical vs. Operant Conditioning
CLASSICAL Stimulus precedes
the response and elicits it
Elicited responses Learning as a result
of association Pavlov
OPERANT Stimulus follows the
response and strengthens it
Emitted responses Learning as a result
of consequences Skinner

Social Learning Theory Social Learning Theory (1 of 3)(1 of 3)
Emphasizes that people learn by observing other persons (models) whom they believe are credible and knowledgeable
Recognizes that behavior that is reinforced or rewarded tends to be repeated
The models’ behavior or skill that is rewarded is adopted by the observer
![Page 26: LEARNING Resource Material By Prof Namita Gupta. 2 What Is Learning? Learning Learning is a relatively permanent change in human capabilities that is.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649cf85503460f949c8ea2/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Social Learning Theory Social Learning Theory (2 of 3)(2 of 3)
Learning new skills or behavior comes from: directly experiencing the consequences of using
behavior or skills, or the process of observing others and seeing the
consequences of their behavior
Learning is also influenced by a person’s self-efficacy self-efficacy – a person’s judgment about whether he
or she can successfully learn knowledge and skills
![Page 27: LEARNING Resource Material By Prof Namita Gupta. 2 What Is Learning? Learning Learning is a relatively permanent change in human capabilities that is.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062313/56649cf85503460f949c8ea2/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Social Learning Theory Social Learning Theory (3 of 3)(3 of 3)
Self-efficacy can be increased using: verbal persuasion – offering words of
encouragement to convince others they can learn
logical verification – perceiving a relationship between a new task and a task already mastered
observation of others (modeling) – having employees who already have mastered the learning outcomes demonstrate them for trainees
past accomplishments – allowing employees to build a history of successful accomplishments

Assignment: Experiential question to be discussed after studying the topic
Do you think manager will be able to more effectively change their subordinate’s performance by using rewards or by using punishment?
However you answer what specific steps you would take to make these efforts most effective.Explain your recommendations.
Good Luck
