Question

An infant randomly makes many vocalizations throughout the day. Some of her vocalizations elicit no response from her parents, but several elicit laughter and hugging from her parents. Eventually, she increases how frequently she makes those vocalizations in order to elicit laughter and hugs through which type of learning?

Answer 1

Answer:

Instrumental conditioning learning.

Explanation:

Learning may be defined as the process that individual learns or understand by its experience. Different types of learning are classical conditioning and instrumental conditioning learning.

Instrumental conditioning may be defined as the learning in which the behavior of an individual is determined by the process of punishment and reward. Since, the child only shows its behavior by understanding the vocals of laughter and hugging. Hence, the child shows instrumental conditioning learning.

Thus, the answer is instrumental conditioning learning.
