Behavior is not just a response to a stimulus, but is guided by expectations and purposes.
The stimuli which are allowed in are not connected by just simple one-to-one switches to the outgoing responses.
Learning consists in the modification of certain mediating processes which operate between the stimulus and the response.
The probability of a response is determined by its reinforcement history.

The strength of a response tendency depends on the amount of reinforcement received.
The organism is essentially a passive responder to environmental stimuli.
