from the effects of the environments according to behaviorists.

Through his work Skinner went on to identify fundamental principles of learning‚ based on experiments with pigeons and rats. From these experiments‚ Skinner developed an explanation as for how humans learn behaviors or change behaviors‚ and went on to infer that patterns of reinforcement shape behavior‚ which is operant conditioning.
