Answer to Question 1

Answer: A

Answer to Question 2

D
Explanation: D) The concept of operant conditioning was part of B. F. Skinner's broader concept of behaviorism, which argues that behavior follows stimuli in a relatively unthinking manner. Skinner's form of radical behaviorism rejects feelings, thoughts, and other states of mind as causes of behavior. In short, people learn to associate stimulus and response, but their conscious awareness of this association is irrelevant.
