The type of conditioning used in this video is operant conditioning. I know this because the fish is doing something voluntary rather than involuntary and it’s learning that the consequences of going through the red ring is getting food. Any time a animal learns something through consequence rather than having a involuntary response, its considered operant conditioning. I learned a few things about how animals learned and one of them is that animals can learn how to do things through more than one type of “schedule” such as Variable Interval Schedules, Variable Time Schedules, and Variable Ratio Schedules. I knew animals were smart, but I didn’t realize truly how much brain capacity they had. I may at some point use the Variable Interval Schedule for feeding my fish. I could do this by setting feeders up in their tanks that dropped food when they bump it with their nose. The food could take anywhere from 20 seconds to 20 minutes for the food to drop. The longer the average interval, the longer it will take it to bump it again. This will eventually cause the fish to only bump it a few times a day and will help the fish feed itself with no help from me. Learning, L. (2023). Reinforcement Schedules .
