Part 1: I believe that the doctors tried to use operant conditioning (active learning) on Sammy Jankis. For Sammy’s situation they used the shock method for him to try and remember not to touch the cone that would set off the electric shock. However, Sammy failed the operant conditioning testing because he would consistently pick up the cone that had the electric shock. He could not remember that the specific cone would shock him. Secondly, Leonard’s condition caused him to lack two of the three essential parts of memory. Leonard could encode information but could not store or retrieve information that are needed to memory, however Leonard encoded information by tattooing himself, and by taking Polaroid’s, and even asking people to tell him about his condition.
