Abstract

A multi-nodal distributed operant conditioning system and method consisting of a user node and one or more networked subject nodes. A user audience at a user node engages in operant conditioning with a subject at a networked subject node by observing real time image data of the subject and effecting operant conditioning signals to the subject in response to operantly offered behaviors by the subject. The multi-nodal, distributed nature of the embodiments provides for uses by a user audience in educational, entertainment, or therapeutic behavioral modification settings.
