I don't like people making things up about me, it's an irrational thing for anyone to do. I suggest you visit specsavers & then go back through my posts, after a succesfull fitting at said specsavers.

I had a look around a few of these places, some go back years, theres something not right about all of the ones I looked at & its seems the same here, at some point i think some inconspicuous but well organised group or faction of some kind directs them, I mean the contents of your post above is...

I understand your points, maybe you dont understand mine, so in simpler terms, 'positive reinforcment' (or negative reinforcement) is highly specific scientific terminology, it belons specificaly to B F Skinners operant conditioning, if it gets , misused & bandied around that way it will cause...

There is NO debate, misunderstanding or confusion of any kind with operant conditioning, it's well understood. Maybe this is not so well known, the most common misuse of OC is brainwashing. Non of anything you wrote above has any relevance to OC, OC defines how an organism learns, theorganism...

Yes, but prior to that the clicker (usualy anyway) is conditioned by throwing tiny bits of food, maybe once or twice a min, every time the monkey starts to eat them click the clicker & pair them.

‘They’ use operant conditioning on any animal capable of learning something in thousands of establishments suitable for purpose around the globe, including places where psychotherapy is practised, you will not hear ‘reward’ used in the way you used it in any of them. ‘Reward’ is a conatative...

Not in operant conditionig its not. Positive reinforcement is when a behaviour adds something as a consequence of that behaviour and the behaviour starts to recur, reward is not a part of OC (operant conditioning).

Recurrent biting, or recurrent any behavior is 'positive reinforced' behavior, each repetition reinforces the next. .
