Operant conditioning was coined by behavior psychologist B. F. Skinner.
Operant Conditioning is a system of three types of responses [punishment], [neutral operants], and [reinforcers] as a response to behaviors. Skinner found [neutral operant] responses from the environment neither increase nor decrease the probability of a behavior being repeated, [reinforcing] a behavior encourages its continuance, and [punishment] for a behavior encourages the end of the behavior.
As a nation, Canada has developed a vibrant cultural sector, with numerous cultural institutions, a diverse publishing industry, a talented music industry, a dynamic cultural new media industry and critically acclaimed film and television industries.
Culture is the heart of a nation. As countries become more economically integrated, nations need strong domestic cultures and cultural expression to maintain their sovereignty and sense of identity. Indeed some have argued that the worldwide impact of globalization is manifesting itself in the reaffirmation of local cultures.
Canadian books, magazines, songs, films, new media, radio and television programs reflect who we are as a people. Cultural industries shape our society, develop our understanding of one another and give us a sense of pride in who we are as a nation. Canada's cultural industries fulfil an essential and vital role in Canadian society.
In their effort to reach audiences, our cultural industries have always risen to the challenge of competition from foreign cultural producers. Their ability to create an enduring place in our lives is dependent on the creativity and talent of Canada's artists, creators and producers. It also depends, in part, on government policies and programs that aim to promote Canadian culture.
The Canadian government uses a combination of financial incentives, Canadian content requirements, tax measures, rules on foreign investments and intellectual property tools to promote Canadian culture. Working together, government and the cultural sector have been able to develop a policy and regulatory environment that ensures that Canadians have access to the best the world has to offer while preserving a space for Canadian culture.
