I really love your idea on positive reinforcement for safe driving. In hindsight, outside of insurance companies providing discounts, there really aren’t many incentives other than the obvious (biological preservation, societal safety, etc) for safe driving.
A picture paints a thousand words, you my friend I thank you.
Oh my gosh, thank you! I have been through so many classes and after viewing this video, it is the FIRST time I actually "see" it.
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:30 🧠 *Operant conditioning explores the link between behaviors and their consequences, shaping future behaviors.*
01:00 🔄 *Consequences in operant conditioning involve reinforcement (positive and negative) and punishment (positive and negative).*
02:20 ➕ *Positive reinforcement adds something to increase a behavior (e.g., rewarding safe driving with a gift card).*
03:21 ➖ *Negative reinforcement removes something to increase a behavior (e.g., stopping a buzzer by wearing a seatbelt).*
04:27 ⛔ *Punishment decreases behavior tendencies, with positive punishment adding something (e.g., receiving a ticket for speeding) and negative punishment taking something away (e.g., losing a driver's license for consistent unsafe driving).*

Thanks, I need to know this for an exam coming up. The struggle of not paying attention in class lol.
Yasmin E same
More like the struggles of paying attention and still not understanding
more like the struggle of not going to class
nathalia yesssss
where you at now yasmin
Totally helps! Thank you very much!!!
Great visualizations and example, finally understood this thoroughly
Been studying this for awhile for an exam, great examples, really really helps!! Nice work!
May I ask what were you studying? And what level??
Finally! I understand this....great simple video...thanks!
BRAVO. Thank you for a clear and concise explanation. You made my brain smile; I think she got it, folks.
This was exceedingly helpful. Thank you very much ^-^
I was having much doubt in this topic but, you explained it quite well. Well done and Thank You So much
thank you so much I now understand operant conditioning
This was a very complex theory before but not anymore. Thanks 👐
Must say excellent video. Such a simple example. Thanks.
Thank you!
Now I'm on my soap box about excelling. Holding the right mental attitude. Two modes of thought. There's a consequential style of learning like trial and error. The other opposite style of learning is a positive reinforcement. Let me give an example of how different learning styles are based upon mental attitudes. Literally the idea of being jealous or envious I believe requires a trial and error style of learning. On the other hand, if an individual is inspired by another, admires or looks up to good works, a negative style of learning can be harmful. Wishing or being doubtful is not the same as being jealous or envious.
Great Video! Simple and elegant!
Put on 1.25 playback speed. Your welcome 😂
lmao!!
I like the normal speed.
haha yeah
lol perfect
✊🏽✊🏽
Great video! Thank you!
I needed this . This was a really great example. Please post a video explaining Respondent or Classical condition ( Pavlov)
Great explanation. Thank you!
Great explanation!
omg thank you so much for explaining this process so thoroughly. I was stuck for a while not understanding the differences between these concepts. But I do now, thanks!
So clear now!! Thank you
great example! thank you
relieved .... from tension of tomorrow's class test... tnx a lot.. :)
Thank you ....well explained...
awesome great work makes sense totally
Thanks for the upload
thanks. very well explained.
So helpful. Thanks soooo much
Perfect explanation. Now I understand the differences.
Thank you so much. It really helps to study for my exam! 😊
Great explanation.
Great and amazing teacher!!!
Thankuu sooo muchh ... You are a saviour ! 😊
That helped a lot thank you!
I literally learnt the subject from this video, great job and thank you a lot.
Now this makes sense., the goal for punishment would be to reduce the likelihood of "poor driving" by not "reducing safe driving". That then results in the Goal= safe driving.....THANK YOU
There was another video I watched where the ticket example was actually an instance of negative punishment because it takes away your money. Seems like nobody really understands these concepts and they are worded very strangely. So glad Im not majoring psychology.
It's not that people don't understand the concepts, it's that the concepts are flexible and they also depend on how one interprets the situation.
Some people might consider having to do housework/cleaning as a punishment while others see it as enjoyable.
True
I know
@@007Zangetzu or studying as it seems for a lot of students xD
this helped a lot thank u
very helpful thanks
positive reinforcement: giving a reward/ negative reinforcement: taking the reward away. / positive punishment: scaring the subject. / negative punishment: taking their reward away.
You have positive punishment wrong. Positive punishment is adding an aversive event to decrease a behavior. Fear has nothing to do with it.
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:
00:01 🧠 Operant conditioning focuses on the relationship between behavior and consequences.
01:00 🏆 There are two main types of consequences: reinforcement and punishment.
02:20 ➕ Reinforcement increases the likelihood of a behavior occurring again (positive: adding something, negative: taking something away).
03:21 ➖ Punishment decreases the likelihood of a behavior occurring again (positive: adding something, negative: taking something away).
06:07 ♻️ All consequences (reinforcement and punishment) have a reciprocal relationship with behavior and influence its future occurrence.

This is really helpful.
Thank you very much!
Thank you so much!
Examples of safe driving are well put
Great job 👍
Thank you so much
Thanks a ton man
This was so helpful! Thank you!
super super helpful!!
This was on my MCAT
Fantastic presentation
Something that really needs to be addressed that almost no one seems to focus on is that the desired "behavior" can be good or bad for the individual and what they define as good or bad is relative, unfortunately.
In the case of the 'safe driving' example the desired behavior could be changed to 'unsafe driving' (psychotic, yes, but necessary for understanding the terms).
In that case if you wanted someone to become an unsafe driver the positive reinforcement would be giving them a reward every time they drive without their seatbelt on or hitting them on the back of the head every time they put their seatbelt on. Both are positive reinforcers because you are introducing a stimulus to get the desired behavior even if the behavior is not good for the persons' well-being.
In that case a negative reinforcer would be adding a buzz sound after the seatbelt has been put on and turning it off when the seatbelt is clicked off because we are reinforcing the desired behavior is unsafe driving.
For positive punishment it would be issuing a ticket when that individual is found driving with their seatbelt off (since the desired behavior of unsafe driving wants to be reduced) and negative punishment would be driving suspensions.
The reason I think this is important is because there are people out there whose desired behavior is for the negative impact of someone's well-being and abusive relationships are a prime example of this where someone will abuse someone (positive reinforcement) in order to get the desired behavior of complete obedience and submission to the individual which is important to understand in psychology and counselling.
Good explanation
I think the examples of positive and negative punishment are incorrect for the example goal of "safe driving". Technically, to follow the same logic as you used for positive and negative reinforcement, you should have said that the impact of punishment would be to REDUCE the likelihood of safe driving happening in the future. Instead you switched the goal to reducing POOR driving. This switcharoo convolutes the lecture.
Why would the impact of punishment reduce the likelihood of safe driving? Isn't the overall goal safe driving?
+Dan McLee Because "Reinforcement" was defined as "increase the likelihood that a target behavior will occur again". Therefore the inverse of that should be "Punishment -- DECREASE the likelihood that a target behavior will occur again."
I agree. The lecture became highly confusing to me because of this.
The overall goal IS safe driving. The punishments were dealt due to bad driving in an attempt to encourage good driving.
Thank you
Very clarifying. Thank you !!!
Regard Psych student
Thank youuu
thanku
Helpful
Presented like a real social worker 😊😊😊
😂
Nice explanation
your good at teaching
I guess that's a very good way to explain it must be why all cars beep now if you get close to another car or a curb
thank you bruh
In this case, is the buzzer a positive punisher that causes the behavior of safe driving to be negatively reinforced?
Excellent. Simply demonstrated and easily understood. Great job. Thanks :-)
Thax for your great lecture.
I got it all clearly.
examples make me understand
Thank you so very much. I understand it better now. However, this gets complicated to me when it comes to testing. For example with Punishment, the Ticket. Yes, the driver is given a ticket but at the same time, that it's his or her money being taken away. Which means it can be both negative and positive?
Driver and ticket makes the State Money. Slavery.
with regards to negative reinforcement in this example, Im reminded of an issue that i have with this concept. this hypothetical points out what i mean perfectly. isn’t negative reinforcement in itself almost always predicated on punishment? the buzz before the seatbelt is added could be viewed as a punishment. many instances of negative reinforcement fit this mold. i sometimes wonder if negative reinforcement is under-explored or overvalued
perfect clear and concide thanks so much
Could we give someone mayo (spoiled) as a positive punishment (we add an unpleasant stimulus) so his/her chance of eating the sandwich would drop? When I get a task(exam), I dont know if I should take it as classical or operant conditioning. I know that by classical conditioning its always about association between 2 stimulus, normally one is reflex, one calls the situation the oder doesn/t, and we pair it with something so the ns goes to cs. And at operant you have more like consequences, and you associate if the action leads to a good pleasant consequence then the chance of the action in the future will be higher, and vice versa if the action leads to bad unpleasant consequence. One more example. I went to the doctor, and he said "this wont hurt at all" before giving us an injection, which felt like hell. So? I would understand this is typical for classical conditoning, we associate the "it wont hurt a bit" with pain, so next time when you are example at school and someone says "this wont hurt a bit" you run away. OTHER explanation (OPERANT CONDITIONING) for me would be, that we take this injection as a positive punishment, so it would reduce our action to go to the doctor, because we take it as a bad consequence? WHERE AM I WRONG? please please explain ...
I need permission to use your RUclips videos at a dog training seminar I am presenting at. How do I contact someone for permission? Many thanks for such clear and *positive* information clearly presented.
That first diagram with the arrows is incorrect for negative reinforcement.
It’s the only quadrant that happens before the behaviour, that is a very important factor of negative reinforcement.
Behaviour ➡️consequence ➡️ +R/+P/-P
With negative reinforcement.
-R ➡️behaviour➡️consequence
Seat belt alarm happens (-R) ➡️ person puts seat belt on (behaviour)➡️alarm turns off (consequence)
KHAN!!!!!!!
This is the first time Kahn Academy was very unhelpful
I hope you give basic example for that but nonetheless the content is good :)
I have a better understanding
What about social conformity by negative renforcement from leaders or peer influences? Aka bullying someone to conform to certain believes. It would be nice if you did a topic on it. Like why do people hate something even if the outcome is positive (ex: gay people, racisim, age, etc.)
E for effort on drawing
Career influencing tutorial
In this article you uploaded your said that a ticket is negative punishment as it is "taking away money". So is it largely due to your perception of whether a ticket is positive or negative? www.khanacademy.org/test-prep/mcat/behavior/learning-slug/a/classical-and-operant-conditioning-article
A ticket is taking your money away and marking your reputation as a driver negatively. Positive/Negative punishment distinction is problematic in this sense.
Wish me luck on my exam tomorrow😂 its do or die at this point 😅
How the machine understands that it is a positive reward or not, why it supposed that it was a positive reward it can't feel why not it repeats the wrong decision ?
I am a little bit struggling to find the distinction between negative reinforcement and positive punishment. Isn't that if the guy doesn't wear seat belt, and annoyed by a buzzing sound, are considerably a positive punishment?
That is only confusion in a matter of context. However, the concept of taking away something as a practice of reinforcement are pretty difficult to understand.
Why punishment cannot be used as a negative reinforcer?
why did you leave out extinction?
scott baron extinction is one of the most important results of operant conditioning too!
Is this concept taught?
And to what students?
We don't study this and I've noticed some of the comments are from students
How is a speeding ticket considered positive??
It is but, unfortunately, this part is incorrect. He said that punishment is used to decrease the tendency that the behavior will occur again. In the case of safe driving punishment would be issued to decrease their tendency to drive safe.
It should have been that a ticket was given when the person was driving safely (positive punishment) and the license was taken away when the person was driving safely (negative punishment) since the punishment was to decrease the likelihood of someone driving safely.
Or that a reward like a gas card was given when a person drove without their seatbelt on (positive punishment) or a buzz was issued when the person put their seatbelt on and turned off when they took their seatbelt on (negative punishment).
3:44
Isn't adding the buzzing sound considered positive punishment since the person didn't wear the seat belt?
It’s - R because the seatbelt buzzer happens before the behaviour, and makes a behaviour more likely to occur, The diagram he made is wrong which is why it’s confusing.
If your goal is safe driving, speeding tickets are negative reinforcement.
If your goal is reduce speeding, tickets are positive punishment.
Mike Pence, you need a time out son
he made the concept very confusing.....
Anyone else use these videos to better understand dog training?
