key feature of behaviorism

Also known as behavior psychology are defined by conditioning.  The concept of conditioning is the interaction with the nature. It is believed that our responses to environmental stimuli shape our actions. 

Features of behaviorism are:

1.Learning through association

2.Rewards and punishments

3.Aversion Theory

In this content we would like to go through one feature of behaviorism. Lets go by the first one Learning through association. In this we train the one by associating things with them. Like if we train a dog we keep 2 thing bone and ball. we make him see both things and hide the bone so he will associate the ball with the bone. If he finds or play with ball he will get bone. Like this we can make small kids to associate food with a candy so that they will eat it.
