Answer to Question 1

a . Classical conditioning: Associative learning. After a novel stimulus is repeatedly paired with a familiar stimulus, people (or animals) learn to associate the two stimuli, and to respond to the novel stimulus in anticipation of the familiar stimulus. This type of learning is simply about mentally associating two things.
b. Operant conditioning: Instrumental learning. After rewards (or punishments) repeatedly occur following certain behaviors, people (or animals) learn to engage in those behaviors more and more often (or less and less often).This type of learning is about the effect of rewards and punishments on behavior.
c. Social learning: Vicarious or observational learning. After observing that rewards (or punishments) are repeatedly conferred upon others after they have performed certain behaviors, people (or animals) learn to engage in those behaviors more and more often (or less and less often).This type of learning is the same as operant conditioning except that the learning happens by observing others (as opposed to by direct experience).
