hahaha look what if found in the attic. operant conditioning and pigeons: those were the days.

#even then I knew pigeons were the future #and now you know

Shout out to my bro Ivan for realizing the capabilities of animals. Even though he focused more on involuntary behavior rather than learned skills, its good to know SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS HOW RAD AND RELATABLE TO HUMANS ANIMALS ARE!

#animals rule psychology pals someone gets it

Shout out to my rats! Sorry I don’t give you enough love and pay more attention to the pigeons! Look at the little guy, pressing a lever, getting food, learning how to behave.

#rats #but the pigeons are still cooler #operant conditioning

IT WORKS! WHY DOES NO ONE TRUST PIGEONS?!

So true! He knows that the lever will bring him sumptuous sustenance!

Look at my teaching machines! Kids learn to be immediately right by seeing right away if their answer is correct or not! Takes away all doubt and anxiety, makes learning pleasant!

#shout out to my kids #education #learning

Look! By training him to associate getting food with the magazine sounding and the light flashing, I can get him to turn all the way around!

#nurture #I am the ultimate teacher

LOOK AT WHAT I’VE DONE. WHO SAYS THEY CAN’T LEARN!

#my consolation prize from the failed missile #they probably play better than you Rogers

If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.

shout out to John Watson whose work allowed me to further my own research. Thanks to you homeslice, animal behaviors are easier than ever to manipulate.

#but manipulate in a good way #not the bad way #unless that's the experiment

a photo of my brilliant pigeon-guided missile that would have made WW2 a lot easier unfortunately was not well received with the US Navy.

#nobody takes pigeons seriously still bitter #project pigeon

im not saying there’s not stuff going on in your brain rn but tbh whats the point of studying your thoughts (and idk internal dialogue?) if you can’t do it scientifically???

#empirical data #with numbers like these who needs friends #madradpsychskills #BF Skinner

me, BF Skinner, on a date: So what do you think about psychology? humanist date: I just think that human nature is more than repetition of actions because they have positive outcomes, you know? We can’t just be slaves to our learned behaviors, and we definitely can’t be compared to animals psychologically, not when our brains are so different and unique. me, BF Skinner: *shoving breadsticks into Skinner box* I’m sorry, I need to leave now, immediately.

Let’s get some things straight...

Despite what many people accuse me of, my research on the concept of ‘free will’ is NOT my way of promoting a ‘scientific police state’.
