B. F. Skinner

Burrhus Fredric Skinner was born on March 20, 1904 and died on August 18, 1990. He was a professor of psychology at Harvard. He had many inventions, and ideas. The animation I did reflected on his use of operant conditioning. He is known as an influential psychologist of the 20th century. Some of his ideas were great such as operant conditioning and some were strange such as his invention the air crib. I hope you enjoy the video which involves my take on how operant conditioning would work with B. F. Skinner.

  1. Your animations are always very entertaining. Very creative by giving her the reward of being able to shoot the gun as positive reinforcement to not eating the cake. Your introduction could use a bit more explanation on what operant conditioning is and why the clients behavior of overeating would decrease because of it.
