Quizplus · Accepted Answer

John B. Watson was a behaviorist and believed that learning should be explained without any reference to mental processes. He rejected the idea that humans learn through cognition and instead emphasized the importance of observable behavior and environmental stimuli in shaping behavior. He also argued that learning depends on how predictably rather than how frequently events are associated, and that both humans and lower animals learn to expect that a CS will be followed by a US.
