B.F. Skinner believed in operant conditioning. He felt that a person is more likely to repeat a behavior if the consequences are positive. Therefore, he suggested that children should be reinforced, or rewarded for learning. In order to test his theories, Skinner experimented with pigeons. When the pigeons performed the desired task, they were rewarded with food.
