operant conditioning chamber

theanatomyofmelancholy:

Behaviorist psychologist B.F. Skinner was born March 20, 1904.  He studied conditioning, including superstition in pigeons, and believed in experimental analysis.  He also employed creative use of operant conditioning chambers, otherwise known as Skinner boxes.  I don’t know about you, but that term makes me want to stay home all day and make dioramas.
