We will anaylze this scenario with the help of operant conditioning, which is a type of learning in which behavior is strengthened if followed by a reinforcer or diminished if followed by a punisher. Reinforcer is any event that strengthens the behavior it follows.

Skinner states that "Beahvior is determined and controlled by the stimuli that are present in a given situation"

According to Skinner, when you take an aspirin for your headache, taking the aspirin is a negative reinforcer whereas the headache is an operant.

Suppose you were advising a company that is experiencing a decline in marginal returns. what two steps might you recommend
Fed [463]

1. Often, as more people are added to a single job, the marginal return decreases (Brook's law). This is due to several reasons. With more people, communication and synchronization become increasingly difficult. Also, it takes some time for new employees to become as productive as older ones. Finally, if the work is highly divisible, it might just take them longer because they might get in each other's way. Therefore, the first advice would be to check the personnel and try to remove any employee who is superfluous.

2. Diminishing returns is the decrease on marginal output as one production factor increases and all the other ones stay the same. So another solution would be to try to increase all the other factors that have not been increased yet.
