Good video, but although the procedure of operant conditioning has merits, behavior analysts have always eschewed explaining why it works, and for good reason, for a good explanation derived from neuroscience can upset a lot of apple carts. To wit: Operant conditioning and classical (respondent) conditioning do NOT reflect separate processes, only separate procedures. Reinforcement is due to changing information or expectancies, and not due to S-R linkages. Reinforcement is affective, or it feels good or bad, mainly due to the neurochemical activity in the brain as represented by dopamine and opioid systems. Reinforcement is continuous, not discrete, and occurs when information changes or when it is expected to change (also known as priming effects, as when you alert to an incoming surprise, such as a lottery drawing) Bio-behavioral or ‘unified reinforcement principles’ have been around and accepted by Skinnerian behaviorists and neuro-psychologists alike, and replace operant and respondent paradigms with a new way of looking at and implementing reinforcement that is based on ‘discrepancy’ principles. The good news is that all of this fits perfectly fine under what is called a ‘radical behaviorism’, the bad news is that behavior analysts will have to change how they explain operant conditioning, and even the procedures they use.

Skinner, B. F.: (1904-1990) Famous behaviorist who studied the behavior of mice and pigeons in 'Skinner' boxes (similar to today's cubicle) where they had to work for a living. Armed with the stunning knowledge that behavior is guided by rewards or reinforcers, Skinner fled from the laboratory to spread this common sense gospel. Unfortunately, since the language of Skinnerian behaviorism was no more uplifting or original than a repair manual for a 1954 Volkswagen, Skinnerian behaviorism fell into disrepute with those who needed feel good metaphors to spice up dull common sense (see humanistic psychology). Later, Skinnerian behaviorism became confused with behaviorism in general, experimental psychology, and ethology, and the lot of them because disreputed by those who wouldn't look up the distinction, which meant darn near everybody. (See behaviorism) from Dr. Mezmer’s Dictionary of Bad Psychology at www.doctormezmer.com/books
