What Shamu Taught Me About A Happy Marriage Analysis

As the story progresses, the readers see a falling out of that marriage for obvious reasons.

This essay will look at the work of two very famous behaviourists. It will consider the differences and similarities as well as give descriptive detail of their actual experiments and see if any contribution was provided to mankind. It will focus on the theory of learning based upon the idea that all behaviors are acquired through conditioning which occurs through interaction with the environment. As this was done by experimenting with animals, it is also necessary to consider the rules and restrictions that are needed to be kept in mind as research ethics applies to any experiments done on any living thing.

We also see view towards in marriage in a conversation with Cléante and Orgon. “Cléante says, "There 's one more thing-no more debate- I want to change the subject, if I might. I heard that you said the other night, To Valère, he’d be your son-in law." Orgon says, "I did." Cléante says, "And set the date?" Orgon says, "Yes" (1.5.179). Here we see marriage being talked about in political matter yet again. Cléante knows exactly what he wants and will not stop until Valère marries Mariane. He is confident everything will work out just as he has planned. Cléante has everything planned out but things don’t go his way. This was definitely a learning experience for him because he tried to force something to happen that

Although Dominance Theory training is based on an understanding of an animal’s social dynamics and is still in use, most popularly dogs and horses, the observations it is based on are often misunderstood and misapplied, so its use has led to ethically questionable training methods today.

“Will Your Marriage Last?”, by Aviva Patz, is a cohesive article about marriage and divorce. Aviva Patz is the executive editor of Psychology Today. Patz narrates the story of Ted Huston, a professor at the University of Texas, who followed the lives of 168 couples for 13 years after their wedding date. She was then able to draw conclusions about what makes a couple stay together or end up filing divorce papers. Although marriages and divorce are the themes of this article, it is really about society’s pressure on young people to be perfect.

In life especially, 2,000 years ago, there was a path that women were expected to take. Marriage being the number one decision and path they were supposed to endure. Today, women role in society has changed tremendously since the 1800s. Women are now a little more equal to men. In Chopin, Kate. The Story of an Hour and Hawthorne, Nathaniel. The Birth-mark, two stories about gender role and marriages, show how it was like in the 1800s. Their opinion of marriage was correct even though somethings were flawed.

In review of “What Shamu Taught me About a Happy Marriage” Amy Sutherland writes about the struggles of her marriage in an article, and what she decides to do to while taking techniques of animal trainers and their pet students.

Behavioural development in animals undergoing domestication is characterized by changes in the quantitative rather than qualitative nature of responses (Price, 1999). When being ridden McGreevy et al., (2009) found that horses may be that at their most dangerous (e.g., when bolting and bucking), ridden horses have simply reverted to responses within the predator model. This is interesting because it suggests that no matter how ethologically parallel in-hand work may be, a ridden horse can later revert to these counter–predator responses, seemingly confirming that ridden work may not be emphatically within, the horse’s ethogram. It could also suggest that whatever performance enhancing products are used, will the horse just revert back to these behaviours regardless. This shows that when the dialogue between horses and humans is consistent there is a positive correlation with relaxation and rapport. Inter-specific communication may help the horses overcome their fear and therefore reduce the tendency to use counter-predator responses. When the horse shows something of its own intention, it is often seen from a human perspective to be undermining the human-horse interaction. What horse people erroneously consider examples of reasoning in their horses, turn out to be excellent examples of trial-and-error

    In the time frame that this story is set, many major life decisions things are made taking into account one’s duty to family - including the selection of a husband or wife.  It is possible that each of these couples may not have been in love,  when their vows were stated.  They have a duty to society; they must not marry outside of their social class.  They have a duty to their family;

The purpose of this report is the RSPCA has assignment me to create a training manual to be given to people who adopt cats and dogs. The animal I’ve chosen to do for this task is a dog. The creation of this training manual requires a complete understanding of each theory and process of learning which includes providing an informative report with clear instructions for owners to use when training their new pets.

Marriage is a signification that one’s commitment to another will last a life time, it is in that life time that the consideration of creating a legacy begins. Laura Lagrange, the protagonist in Francis Harper’s short story “The Two Offers”, has to make a decision between two men who have asked for her hand in marriage. “But to tell you the truth, I do not think that I regard either as a woman should the man she chooses for her husband. But then is I refuse, there is the risk of being an old maid, and that is not to be thought of” (462). Like any other marriage Laura wanted a family, family is the construction of any home, family is a product of unconditional love. Her cousin Janette Alston ends up being labeled as an old maid because she never marries. In my opinion Laura settles for a man to marry because she refuses to be like Janette. In my opinion I think that Janette desired to fulfill her interpretation of family, she desired to create a home for her family. She lost her child but desired to press on and try again but it is hard to accomplish something you so desperately want, when the person that you need to help you achieve that goal has absolutely no regard for you wellbeing.

This book is suspenseful. Nick and Amy Dunne both described their marriage positively at the beginning of the book. Although, marriage isn’t always what you think it’s going to be. It’s not as easy as what they thought it would be. Gone Girl gets deeper into manipulation, power, and control with the characters in their dysfunctional marriage.

It is easier to practice with an animal because they will not argue or reject them. These techniques, learned with an animal, can then be generalized to other humans.

The biased process and importance of marriage are introduced with the first line of the book. Jane Austen writes:

First of all, what is humanity? When I recall my lectures correctly human behavior is effected by nature and nurture. The makeup of a human genetics and its environment. From what I have learned from my Sociology classes and so far from the Psychology classed is that the ratio is about 50-50 percent. Although I suspect that the neutering and its environment might tip the scale towards an environmental factor what determines our human behavior and our situational behavior. This therefor could be the base of stressors that trigger how humans behave and interact within a society. It is possible the need in human to, fit in, in any situation that grooms a person’s socialization. This has been the base of my thoughts of reviewing “The Human Behavior Experiments” video for this assignment.
