Operant conditioning•Skinner (1938)•Behaviours are learnt through the process of
reinforcement by punishment or reward▫Positive reinforcement – Increases the
probability of a behaviour by giving a reward▫Negative reinforcement – increases the
probability of a behaviour by taking away discomfort
▫Punishment – decreases the probability of a behaviour as the person will want to avoid it (terminate or avoid)

Reinforcement schedules
•What factors would effect strength of the reinforcer?
![Page 6: MSc in Addiction Studies Learning Theories of Addiction Operant conditioning, social learning theory and contingency management.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6f5503460f94a511d7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Reinforcement schedules continued…
•Occasional reinforcement•Contiguity – reinforcements/punishments
closely linked in time•Different schedules of reinforcement
▫Continuous reinforcement▫Partial reinforcement
![Page 7: MSc in Addiction Studies Learning Theories of Addiction Operant conditioning, social learning theory and contingency management.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6f5503460f94a511d7/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Operant conditioning in drug addiction•Drugs of abuse are powerful positive
reinforcers •Animal self-administration studies -
▫e.g. Aigner and Balster (1978), rhesus monkeys given the choice between cocaine and food, choose cocaine.

Contingency management (CM)•Providing incentives to change behaviour
and/or engage with treatment
•How might contingency management be used in substance misuse services?
![Page 9: MSc in Addiction Studies Learning Theories of Addiction Operant conditioning, social learning theory and contingency management.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6f5503460f94a511d7/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
CM schedules
•Fixed monetary incentive▫Hep B vaccines, ConMan – one-off
monetary payment▫Adherence to TB treatment in injection
drug and cocaine users (Malotte et al.2001)
•Escalating monetary incentive▫Abstinence cannabis (Budney et al., 2000) ▫Naltrexone adherence in opiate
dependence (Preston et al. 1999)
![Page 10: MSc in Addiction Studies Learning Theories of Addiction Operant conditioning, social learning theory and contingency management.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6f5503460f94a511d7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
CM schedules continued…• Prize based
▫Fish-bowl (Petry)▫Alcohol – abstinence and/or attendance▫Abstinence from methamphetamine (Roll et al., 2006),▫Adherence to antiretroviral medication for HIV (Rosen
et al., 2007)
• Other reinforcers▫Methadone take-homes, dosage decrease, progression
to next stage of the programme, discharge from treatment (see Prendergast 2006 for a review)
![Page 11: MSc in Addiction Studies Learning Theories of Addiction Operant conditioning, social learning theory and contingency management.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6f5503460f94a511d7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Effectiveness of CM
•What factors impact on the effectiveness of CM?
•What need to be considered when designing a CM protocol?
![Page 12: MSc in Addiction Studies Learning Theories of Addiction Operant conditioning, social learning theory and contingency management.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6f5503460f94a511d7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Summary so far
•Operant conditioning and Skinners experiments
•Contingency management ▫How it can be used in the treatment of
substance misuse▫Different schedules – what needs to be
considered when designing a schedule▫The long-term effectiveness of CM

Social learning theory (SLT)•Behaviour is learnt through observation
and experience within a social environment ▫Modelling – learn about the outcomes of a
behaviour by observing others.▫Bandura bobo doll experiments
![Page 14: MSc in Addiction Studies Learning Theories of Addiction Operant conditioning, social learning theory and contingency management.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d6f5503460f94a511d7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

SLT and relapse•Self-efficacy – the degree to which a person
feels competent or capable of performing an action▫Predict likelihood of attempting to abstain▫Abstinence violation effect – the effects and
consequences of not remaining abstinent•Marlatt and George (1984)
▫Contact with cues increases risk of relapse ▫Arouse positive outcome expectancies and
trigger motivation to use drugs 4▫Resources available to the person to be able to
abstain
