What does operant conditioning involve?

Learning from consequences
Using visual cues
Responding to positive reinforcement
Following verbal instructions

The correct answer is: Learning from consequences

Operant conditioning is a type of learning where behaviors are strengthened or weakened depending on their consequences. This involves learning from the outcomes (consequences) of certain behaviors, rather than being taught through verbal instructions or visual cues. While positive reinforcement is often used in operant conditioning, it is not the only factor involved in this type of learning. Therefore, options B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately describe what operant conditioning involves.
