I am a follower of your work. It is very interesting to learn about the environment. I believe that the environment contributes to the way that our mind dreams, something I study and research avidly.

Dorothea Dix: our research could be applied both ways and it is interesting talking to someone who works with people much different than the people I work with.
Stanley Milgram: fellow Harvard student who studied an idea similar to my research

Me and my fellow Harvard student Stanley Milgram went to the museum of psycology in Boston. We discussed how certain forms of reinforcement would affect ones ability to obey authority.

Went to the Darwin house in England today with my friend Dorothea Dix and we discussed how those who are criminally insane could benefit from positive reinforcement instead of punishing them with horrible living conditions. It was cool to see the house of someone that applied a form of reinforcement by consequence to nature long before I started studying it.

Got to use my Teaching machine today at Harvard to put my principles of teaching to the test! It was super easy with the delivery method I created myself! So happy I could do it at my favorite university.

My research fell under behaviorism because of my focus on the environments effect on how an organism acts. The way I conducted experiments and how I approached it is called radical behaviorism

# data[].attributes.body
I focused on behaviorism in psychology and how the environment impacts behavior. It’s called radical behaviorism and it was not a Frequently studied science. I also studied reinforcement which is a large aspect of behaviorism. Reinforcement is either positive or negative and it shapes and controls behavior. Negative reinforcement would be a punishment and positive would be a reward.

I also invented a number of different machines, some for public use, and others for specific experiments. For example, I once made a teaching machine. It had programmed in it my list of all the requirements to learn a new skill and the machine would apply them to prove wether or not those are necessary parts of learning. Another example of a machine I made was called an air crib and it was an easily cleanable little compartment that had the perfect conditions for babies.

After receiving a PhD at Harvard, I taught at the university of Minnesota, Minneapolis and later at Indiana university where I was chair of the psychology department. Then I returned to Harvard and became a tenured professor where I remained until my retirement.

I went to Hamilton College to become an art major. I joined a frat called lambda chi alpha and got my Bachelor of Arts in English literature. Afterwards, I attended Harvard University where I researched and studied experimental science. After graduating, I came across a book called “Behaviorism” by John B. Watson that inspired me to study behavior.
