TED-Ed: The difference between classical and operant conditioning - Peggy Andover

The video explores the concept of learning in psychology, focusing on classical and operant conditioning. Classical conditioning is explained through Pavlov's experiments with dogs, demonstrating how a neutral stimulus can become a conditioned stimulus. The video also illustrates classical conditioning in humans with a doctor's visit scenario. Operant conditioning is introduced, highlighting reinforcement and punishment as key components. Examples of operant conditioning in daily life and unique situations, like teaching pigeons to distinguish art styles, are provided.
