PSYCH QUIZ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Unconditioned Stimulus (US) | naturally and automatically triggers a response |
| Unconditioned Response (UR) | unlearned, naturally occurring |
| Neutral Stimulus (NS) | elicits no response |
| Conditioned Stimulus (CS) | an originally neutral stimulus that now triggers a conditioned response when paired with an US |
| Conditioned Response (CR) | the learned response to a previously neutral stimulus |
| Conditioned | Learned |
| Unconditioned | unlearned/natural |
| learning | the process of acquiring through experience new and relatively enduring information or behaviors |
| habituates | decreasing responsiveness with repeated exposure to a stimulus. |
| associative learning | learning that certain events occur together. The events may be two stimuli (as in classical conditioning) or a response and its consequence |
| stimulus | any event or situation that evokes a response. |
| respondent behavior | behavior that occurs as an automatic response to some stimulus.. |
| operant behaviors | behavior that operates on the environment, producing consequences. |
| cognitive learning | the acquisition of mental information, whether by observing events, by watching others, or through language. |
| classical conditioning | a type of learning in which we link two or more stimuli; as a result, to illustrate with Pavlov’s classic experiment, the first stimulus (a tone) comes to elicit behavior (drooling) in anticipation of the second stimulus (food). |
| behaviorism | objective science, based only on observable behavior –No cognition |
| acquisition | in classical conditioning, the initial stage, when one links a neutral stimulus and an unconditioned stimulus so that the neutral stimulus begins triggering the conditioned response. In operant conditioning, the strengthening of a reinforced response. |
| higher-order conditioning | a procedure in which the conditioned stimulus in one conditioning experience is paired with a new neutral stimulus, creating a second conditioned stimulus. (pet responding to light instead of sound for food) |
| extinction | the diminishing of a conditioned response; occurs in classical conditioning when an unconditioned stimulus (US) does not follow a conditioned stimulus (CS); occurs in operant conditioning when a response is no longer reinforced. |
| spontaneous recovery | the reappearance, after a pause, of an extinguished conditioned response. |
| generalization | the tendency, once a response has been conditioned, for stimuli similar to the conditioned stimulus to elicit similar responses. |
| discrimination | in classical conditioning, the learned ability to distinguish between a conditioned stimulus and similar stimuli that do not signal an unconditioned stimulus. |
