Question

Mom wants to make sure that Ivan completely overcomes his fear of puppies. When Ivan reaches towards a puppy and pats it, Mom will give him a chocolate-covered strawberry as a reward. She thinks of two ways to do this: Plan A is to reward him when Ivan pats the puppy every 5 times on average, but sometimes after 3 times and sometimes after 7 times. Plan B is to reward him for patting a puppy for the first time, but not give him more strawberries for the next 10 minutes regardless of how many times she touches the puppy. Repeat the same for the next 10 minutes, by rewarding him on the first response during that 10-minute period. After a while, Ivan seemed to have overcome his fear of puppies. One day Mom was trying to give the puppy a bath. She puts the puppy into the bathtub, turned on the shower and shampooed him, and she noticed that Ivanwas standing behind her watching what she was doing. A few days later, Mom saw Ivan trying to put the puppy in the kitchen sink and trying to wash the puppy with dish soap. Answer the questions below based on the Passage:What type of learning was involved in Ivan trying to put the puppy in the kitchen sink and trying to wash the puppy with dish soap?
