Which learning theory is best described as one where actions are influenced by their consequences, such as rewards and punishments?

• Habituation

• Operant Conditioning

• Insight Learning

• Social Learning

What is defined as a type of learning where behavior is more likely to recur if followed by a reward and less likely if followed by a punishment?

• Operant Conditioning

• Cognitive Learning

• Classical Conditioning

• Trial-and-Error Learning

Which learning process focuses on how consequences like reinforcers and punishers affect the likelihood of a behavior being repeated?

• Observational Learning

• Classical Conditioning

• Operant Conditioning

• Modeling

The type of learning in which a specific behavior is either encouraged or discouraged based on the outcome that follows it is called:

• Classical Conditioning

• Insight Learning

• Operant Conditioning

• Vicarious Learning

A study tested whether students would increase participation when praised and decrease disruptions when scolded. Which learning theory explains these results?

• Observational Learning

• Classical Conditioning

• Operant Conditioning

• Habituation

A child receives candy for doing chores and loses screen time for talking back. This system of learning is best described as:

• Social Learning

• Classical Conditioning

• Operant Conditioning

• Sensory Conditioning

A pet owner trains a dog to sit by offering treats for sitting and ignoring the dog when it jumps. What kind of learning is being used?

• Operant Conditioning

• Classical Conditioning

• Latent Learning

• Reflex Conditioning

Which learning approach is most applicable when a teacher uses a token economy to shape classroom behavior through positive rewards and consequences?

• Cognitive Mapping

• Operant Conditioning

• Observational Learning

• Insight Learning

In an experiment, participants were rewarded with points for correctly identifying patterns and lost points for errors. Over time, accuracy increased. What learning process is this?

• Operant Conditioning

• Classical Conditioning

• Insight Learning

• Social Learning
