F Skinner's theory, known as radical behaviorism, is similar to Watson's view that psychology is the study of observable behavior individuals interacting with their environment (Behaviorism 1). Basically what he stated in his radical behaviorism was that if an animal or human is encouraged to do something and there is a reward, they will most likely do it. On the other hand, if there is no reward, chances are a human or animal won't do it. For example, if you tell a teenager to pick up his toys and his reward is candy, he will probably do it because he is receiving something as a reward that is considered positive reinforcement. On the contrary, if he is not told that he will be rewarded, he probably will not do it, which constitutes negative reinforcement. Watson's and Skinner's ideas on behaviorism are similar because they both focus on the idea that behaviorism can be predicted and controlled by the environment. Overall, behaviorism is an important topic in today's society. Although the focus was on behaviorism in the 20th century, behaviorism is still discussed by many psychologists today. Three important figures like Watson, Pavlov, and Skinner are just a few who conducted their own experiments to prove that all behaviorism depends on observable behavior. Therefore, behaviorism is known to be behaviors acquired through conditioning in the
