View full lesson: http://ed.ted.com/lessons/the-difference-between-classical-and-operant-conditioning-peggy-andover Why is it that humans react to stimuli with certain behaviors? Can behaviors change in response to consequences? Peggy Andover explains how the brain can associate unrelated stimuli and responses, proved by Ivan Pavlov's famous 1890 experiments, and how reinforcement and punishment can result in changed behavior. Lesson by Peggy Andover, animation by Alan Foreman.

I screenshot the “learning – a long-term change in behavior that is based on experience” frame over 4 years ago and I finally found this video again. This video really came back to me like a frisbee. I had been wondering what video my screenshot was from, but this quote has changed a lot about how I view the world.
Classical conditioning: Alterations to behaviour over time due to external stimuli. Operant conditioning: Separated into positive/negative reinforcement(to encourage a behaviour), and positive/negative punishment(to discourage a behaviour). This is a great video :)
This is the best of all thank you for explaining this the best
So, genuinely curious. Was motivated to watch this video over others on the same subject because I have pre-existing positive associations with the art style. Does that qualify as an operantly conditioned response? And, I initially developed positive associations for the art style because I've seen it used in information campaigns that align with my intrinsic values. So, can operant conditioning build on itself like that? Like, a previously neutral stimulus became a reinforcer (that ultimately motivated me to watch the video), through previous conditioning?
Such a comprehensive topic explained well in 4 minutes. Wow😍we need such teachers 😭

Well explained :) very well said
I think this may be a bit confusing, because jumping out of the chair may be considered a voluntary behavior and not a reflex. The person runs away because they have learnt that by running away they avoid aversive stimuli (negative reinforcement).
I enjoyed this video it was organized and easy to follow.
