The Psychology of Learning

Does Pavlov’s Dog ring any bells? Professor Pavlov rang the bell, then fed the dog. Eventually, the dog made the connection. After that, every time the bell rang, the dog began to salivate.

Learning doesn’t just happen in laboratories, though. We are constantly learning, both in and outside of work. And that learning happens in different ways. Sometimes we’re conditioned, while others we learn by watching or interacting with someone else. Each type of learning has its place, whichever one we use.
