Conditioning

As a young kid I also took ballet and other dance classes. At my old studio it has always been tradition that after class for the little kids they receive stickers if they behaved well and did what was asked that day. I always received stickers after class because I was so well behaved and because I loved going to class. This still goes on and when I taught this class I continued to do the same and hand out stickers for being well behaved. I have also been conditioned by Mr. Dreier to be afraid of "country music". I was conditioned using operant conditioning and it was on a fixed interval schedule because we always had class at the same time on the same day each week and only once a week. We received positive rewards for our behavior. Sorry this post is so short but there is lots to doo.....
