Answer to Question 1

A.

Answer to Question 2

Skinner's discrimination between respondent and operant conditioning and effects of the field of Applied
Behavior Analysis:
 movement from examining reflexive behaviors (respondent conditioning) to voluntary behaviors (operant conditioning)
 focus on establishment of functional relations between behaviors and consequences
 Skinner's focus on operant conditioning led to the establishment of early principles of human behavior and the use of these principles to change human behavior resulting in the focus on behavior modification
 Application of behavior modification principles in real life settings led to the beginning of Applied Behavior Analysis
