The theorist that conducted an experiment to condition rat to press a bar receive reward is: B.F skinner

In this context, nurture refers to the environmental variable that directly impact organisms' life. Whenever the rat receive foods after pressing the bar, it would directly create an association between the bar and the food.

This influence the rat's behaviour and it would later on press the bar whenever it is hungry. Since normal rats do not press bar in other environment and expect food to come out,  This illustrates how the environment influences the rat's behaviour.

i disagree that there is little difference between adult female development and adult male development. sociological studies comparing female and male pathways to adulthood, revelead that there are sustancial differences between them. particularly, female and male differ from timing of marriage, when they began to live with children and the likelihood of combining wife/husband and parent roles.
