Document Summary

What is learning: definition : modification (or change), that is relatively permanent, in behaviours of a learner. Biological or genetic automatic behaviour: eating, maturation, : temporary state: drugs, fatigue. Habituation: gradual reduction in responding to an event that repeats itself but that is not important to the organism, the simplest form of learning, the aplysia and nematode are able to habituate. John b. watson, father of modern behaviourism : Psychology as the behaviorist views it is a purely objective experimental branch of natural science. Its theoretical goal is the prediction and control of behavior. Introspection forms no essential part of its methods, nor is the scientific value of its data dependent upon the readiness with which they lend themselves to interpretation in terms of consciousness. www. notesolution. com.
