Although B. F. Skinner and other behaviorists did not think that it was necessary to refer to thoughts or expectations when expl
aining human learning, findings from experiments with rats suggest otherwise. Which finding suggests that cognitive processes are involved in operant learning? A) Rats do NOT seem to develop a cognitive map of mazes.
B) Rats appear to experience latent learning while exploring mazes.
C) Children learn from observing their parents and exhibit the learning immediately.
D) Learning is merely the association of a response with a consequence.
B.F Skinner is an American Psychologist / behaviorist who developed different experiments to study Operant Learning. "Operant Learning" is a technique of teaching by rewarding or punishing specific behaviors to either strengthen or get rid of them. During his studies he saw that Rats appear to experience latent learning while exploring mazes. This means that there are cognitive processes involved because the rats are demonstrating this only when they are given an incentive to show it.
