Differential outcomes effect

ID: differential-outcomes-effect

The Differential Outcomes Effect (DOE) is a psychological phenomenon observed in learning and behavior modification. It refers to the enhancement of learning efficiency when different responses to a task are associated with distinct and differential outcomes. In other words, when learners are provided with unique consequences for different actions, they tend to learn more effectively compared to situations where the same outcome is applied to all responses.
