Classical Conditioning
A type of conditioning in which an individual responds to some stimulus that would not ordinarily produce such a response.

Key Concepts
• Reflexive (unlearned) behavior

• Reinforcement
Operant Conditioning
A type of conditioning in which desired voluntary behavior leads to a reward or prevents a punishment.

Key Concepts
• Reinforcement is required to change behavior.
• Some rewards are more effective than others.
• The timing of reinforcement affects learning speed and permanence.

Shaping Behavior
Systematically reinforcing each successive step that moves an individual closer to the desired response.

Types of ReinforcementTypes of Reinforcement
Positive reinforcement– Providing a reward for a desired behavior.
Negative reinforcement– Removing an unpleasant consequence when the
desired behavior occurs. Punishment
– Applying an undesirable condition to eliminate an undesirable behavior.
Extinction– Withholding reinforcement of a behavior to
cause its cessation.

Schedules of ReinforcementSchedules of Reinforcement
Continuous Reinforcement
A desired behavior is reinforced each time it is demonstrated.
Intermittent Reinforcement
A desired behavior is reinforced often enough to make the behavior worth repeating but not every time it is demonstrated.
© 2005 Prentice Hall Inc. All rights reserved. 2–18
Schedules of Reinforcement (cont’d)Schedules of Reinforcement (cont’d)
Fixed-Interval Schedule
Rewards are spaced at uniform time intervals.
Variable-Interval Schedule
Rewards are initiated after a fixed or constant number of responses.

Behavior ModificationBehavior Modification
Five Step Problem-Solving Model
1. Identify critical behaviors
2. Develop baseline data
3. Identify behavioral consequences
4. Develop and apply intervention
5. Evaluate performance improvement

OB Mod
The application of reinforcement concepts to individuals in the work setting.

OB MOD Organizational ApplicationsOB MOD Organizational Applications
Well Pay versus Sick Pay– Reduces absenteeism by rewarding attendance,
not absence. Employee Discipline
– The use of punishment can be counter-productive.
Developing Training Programs– OB MOD methods improve training
effectiveness. Self-management
– Reduces the need for external management control.
