• People and animals are able to adapt their behavior when new information is introduced, even if a previous behavior pattern has been established through reinforcement. It only says that regardless of what behavior an individual learned in the past through the system of reinforcement, he can still be able to modify and/or change it when new circumstances offer new information. I believe that this is true as we also have the process of extinction. As we continue to live, we will encounter many more opportunities for learning.
