Skinner once placed some pigeons in Skinner boxes and reinforced them with food randomly no matter what they were doing. Despite

Skinner used which of the following terms to describe such behaviors that are repeated because they appear to produce reinforcement when really the behaviors are unnecessary?
a.
superstitious behavior
b.
latent learning
