A stimulus that naturally and automatically evokes a response like food. Unconditioned stimulus
an unlearned naturally occuring response to US like drooling. unconditioned response
Stimulus that evokes no response before conditioning tones, bells, touch on leg, picture of cirects used in neutral stimulus
Previosly irrevent stimuls NS that comes to trigger a conditioned response after association with US. Like a tone. Always the same as NS. Conditioned stimulus
Learned response to previously neutral but now conditioned stimulus. Like drooling. The same as Unconditioned response. conditioned response
Bell then food. Links NS and US so that the NS triggers CR. Not much time in between pairing . NS mist come before US Acquistione
Linking new CS to new NS. Creating a second weaker conditioned stimulus. Animals wo preics food might learn that light predicts tone nad begin to respond to light alone. Relizeds that light comes on before food. Higher order conditioning
Dimminishing or ellimonation of CR when US does not follow CS any longer. Stop process dog will unlearn process if you dont give food with dog. extinction
After pause the rememberence of extinguished Cr recover old condition from extinction. spontaneous recovery
The tendency that once response has been conditioned similar stimuli will also eliicit similiar responses Respond to similar but different tones. Bay oysters caused all fried food to be bad. generilization
Scared of one not the other. Learned ability to distinguish between cs and stimuli that are different that do not sigjal an US oppositte of generilization. Dont respons to particualr tone. discrimination

You add something. A stimulus that increases the frequency of a behavior when presented after a response. Paid money for getting an A on a report card. Positive reinforcment
secondary. A stimuli that gains reinforcing power through assocciation with primary reinforcers. Money good grades and praise. Conditioned reinforcers
Patterns that define how often a desired response will be reinforced Reinforcment schedules
Rapidly reinforcing the behavior every time it occurs. Best choice for mastering behavior however extinction also occurs quickly. Quick Learning continuous reinforment schedules
Reinforcing a response only part of the time. Learning is slower but resistance to extinction is greater. Perfered. partial intermittend reinforment schedule
Reinforce a response only after a specified number of responses. ALways the same. Coffee cards by buying 9 and get 1 free fixed ratio schedule
varies and changes. Slot machines and gambling fishing and unpredictable variable ratio schedule
