-Behaviorists saw the mind as a "black box" and did not attempt to analyze its inner processes like thoughts ​and feelings. Instead, they saw learning as a visible change in one's behavior which, unlike mind processes, can be measured. From behaviorist perspective,​ a learner starts off as a clear state and simply responds to environmental stimuli. Those responses can be shaped through positive and negative **reinforcement** (usually a reward for desired and a punishment for undesired behavior), increasing or decreasing the probability of repeating the same behavior. Forming **stimulus-response** (S-R) associations which result in observable behavior is for behaviorism the most significant form of learning. ​+Behaviorists saw the mind as a "black box" and did not attempt to analyze its inner processes like thoughtsfeelings, or motivation.
