- Thorndike's law of effect states that behaviors are modified by their positive or negative consequences.
- In operant conditioning, new or continued behaviors are impacted by new or continued consequences.
- Thorndike realized not only that stimuli and responses were associated, but also that behavior could be modified by consequences.
- According to the law of effect, behaviors that are followed by consequences that are satisfying to the organism are more likely to be repeated, and behaviors that are followed by unpleasant consequences are less likely to be repeated.
- According to this law, behaviors are modified by their consequences, and this basic stimulus-response relationship can be learned by the operant person or animal.
