inevitable, involuntary response to stimuli.

an inborn pattern of behavior elicited by environment stimuli. Also known as a fixed action pattern.

a relatively permanent change in behavior or the capacity for behavior due to experience.

the formation of associations or connections among stimuli and behaviors.

Classical conditioning

a type of learning in which associations are formed between two stimuli that occur sequentially in time

a type of learning in which associations are formed between behaviors and their outcomes.

Nonassociative learning

learning that involved changes in the magnitude of responses to a stimulus.

a simple form of learning in which reactions to repeated stimuli that are unchanging and harmless decreases

an increased reaction to many stimuli following exposures to one very strong stimulus.

Observational learning

learning that occurs when an organism watches the actions of another. Also know as social learning or modeling

Conditioned stimulus (CS)

an environmental event whose significance is learned through classical conditioning.

Unconditioned stimulus (UCS)

a stimulus that elicits a response without any prior experience

Conditioned response (CR)

a response learned through classical conditioning.

Unconditioned response (UCR)

a response to an unconditioned stimulus that requires no previous experience.

the development of a learned response

the reduction of a learned response

during extinction training, the reappearance of conditioned responses after periods of rest. Inhibition : a feature of classical conditioning in which a conditioned stimulus actually predicts the nonoccurrence of an unconditioned stimulus.

the tendency to respond to stimuli that are similar to an original conditioned stimulus.

a leaned ability to distinguish between stimuli.

Higher order conditioning

learning in which stimuli associated with a conditioned stimulus also elicit conditioned responding
