Approaches to toilet training have changed over time. At one point, it was suggested that parents toilet-train whenever they wished, using reinforcement as part of the training. This view is most consistent with _____.

Respuesta :

Answer: A. BEHAVIOURISM

Explanation:

BEHAVIOURISM

Proponents of this theory believe learning to be nothing more than acquiring new behavior based on environmental conditions.

They identify conditioning as a learning process and divide it into 2, CLASSICAL and BEHAVIORAL conditioning.

BEHAVIORAL CONDITIONING is the relevant conditioning here as it posits that a response will be more likely to repeat itself if there is a reinforcement mechanism such as a reward or incentive.

For example, leading behaviorist B.F. Skinner used reinforcement to teach pigeons to dance.

Therefore if the kids are reinforced in toilet training they'll get a grasp of it.
