...that Burrhaus Frederic Skinner is considered one of the leading representatives of behaviorism?
Skinner developed the theory of operant conditioning, which states that behavior is shaped by positive or negative reinforcement or punishment. His famous "Skinner box experiment" is a classic experiment in behavioral psychology. In the box, an animal is rewarded (e.g. with food) or punished (e.g. with a mild electric shock) depending on its behavior. As an example, the rat can learn that pressing the lever brings food (positive reinforcement) or prevents an electric shock (negative reinforcement). It shows how behavior is not only influenced by internal processes, but also strongly by external circumstances - especially in relation to reward and punishment mechanisms. Skinner's ideas have had a significant impact on psychology and education. Although he has been criticized for his emphasis on external control, he is recognized as a significant thinker in the field of behavioral psychology and theory.
