RE: Romantic Desperation Fails - Indifference Attracts
This is totally true and important for people to know. Players, casinos, even many politicians and religious leaders know about Operant Conditioning and if we don't want to be manipulated, we should know about it too!
Operant conditioning
Operant conditioning (also called instrumental conditioning) is a type of associative learning process through which the strength of a behavior is modified by reinforcement or punishment. It is also a procedure that is used to bring about such learning.
Although operant and classical conditioning both involve behaviors controlled by environmental stimuli, they differ in nature. In operant conditioning, stimuli present when a behavior is rewarded or punished come to control that behavior.
