Question
Answer
show Process by which experience or practice results in a relatively permanent change in behavior or potential behavior. Ex: academic learning, turning of a light in a rm, or dancing, etc  
🗑
What is conditioning?   show
🗑
What is classical conditioning?   show
🗑
show classical conditioning  
🗑
What are the 4 elements of classical conditioning?   show
🗑
element 1:What is the Unconditioned Stimulus(US)?   show
🗑
show response that takes place in an organism whenever an unconditioned stimulus occurs, EX: the salivating when given food(US)  
🗑
show an originally neutral stimulus that is paired with an unconditioned stimulus & eventually produces the desired response in an organism when presented alone.  
🗑
show After conditioning: the response an organism produces when only a conditioned stimulus is presented. When CS & US are paired frequently = CR  
🗑
show A conditioning technique to gradually reduce anxiety about a particular object or situation. Person learns to associate relaxation w/a stimulus that causes unnecessary or irrational fear or anxiety  
🗑
What is orienting reflex?   show
🗑
What is Habituation?   show
🗑
show complex preprogrammed behavior ( salmon swim upstream to spawn)  
🗑
What is imprinting?   show
🗑
what is stimulus,response, condition, and un?   show
🗑
how does Classical Conditioning w/immune system work?   show
🗑
What is Conditioned food(or taste)aversion?   show
🗑
show learned association btwn taste of a certain food & nausea & revulsion. Can after 1 bad experience For a rat the interval between eating food & falling ill can be up to 12 hrs. Rapid learning of taste illness combos increase the animals survival rate  
🗑
show humans develop food aversions on a variety of cues including taste, appearance, & smell.  
🗑
show • Due to nausea caused by chemotherapy drugs patients develop strong taste aversions for food eaten before/after injections of the chemotherapy • Even though the patient knows the food didn’t cause the nausea.  
🗑
What are human phobias?   show
🗑
show Mary Cover Jones( she used classical conditioning w/candy). And Desensitization Therapy: learning to relax in the midst of fears Joseph Wolpe.  
🗑
How does Desensitization therapy relieve fears?   show
🗑
show Yes, ALWAYS comes first before the US or the Classical Conditioning won’t work. The CS has to come a few seconds prior to the US.  
🗑
show an auto immune disorder that destroys the immune system, healthy organs, & tissue.  
🗑
What is a good treatment for lupus?   show
🗑
show most effective when there is just a few seconds between the CS & the US. Delays conditioning when there is a long span between onset of CS & onset of US. Works but not as effective.  
🗑
show CS & US are presented at the same time= ineffective  
🗑
show behavior designed to operate on the environment in a way that will gain something desired or to avoid something unpleasant operant or instrumental . They are not automatic reflexes caused by biologically important stimuli.  
🗑
What is Operant or Instrumental Conditioning?   show
🗑
What is a reinforcer?   show
🗑
show a stimulus that follows a behavior & decreases the likelihood that that specific behavior will be repeated.  
🗑
What is the Law of Effect?   show
🗑
show (PR): any event whose presence increases the likelihood that ongoing behavior will recur.  
🗑
show NR): any even whose reduction or termination increases the likelihood that ongoing behavior will recur.  
🗑
show result in the leaving of new behaviors or the strengthening of existing behaviors. Ex: child plays piano for praise (PR) or to escape hw= NR. End result = a higher incidence of piano playing  
🗑
show any event where presence decreases the likelihood that ongoing behavior will recur. It weakens behavior. Should be consistent not more severe.  
🗑
show Learning a desirable behavior to prevent the occurrence of something unpleasant such as punishment.  
🗑
Operant conditioning is selective:   show
🗑
show whenever something we do is followed closely by a reinforcer we will tend to repeat the action, even if the reinforcement is not produced directly by what we have done  
🗑
What is learned helplessness?   show
🗑
show When operant conditioning is used to control certain biological functions such as bp, skin temp, & hr.  
🗑
What is neurofeedback?   show
🗑
What does Bio&Neurofeedback have in common?   show
🗑
What is Response acquisition/trial?   show
🗑
show Pairing the CS & the US on only some of the learning trials & presenting them separately on other trials is this. A procedure that reduces both the rate of learning & the final level of learning achieved.  
🗑
What is Operant Conditioning(OC)?   show
🗑
What is shaping?   show
🗑
What is the Skinner Box?   show
🗑
What is Extinction?   show
🗑
What is Spontaneous Recovery?   show
🗑
show Spontaneous recovery and extinction  
🗑
show One way we overcome interference.  
🗑
show Transfer of a learned Ex: Little Albert learned to fear white furry rats, & not only that but it generalized to all kinds of white furry objects such as cotton balls, a fur coat, & even a Santa Clause mask. response to different but similar stimuli.  
🗑
show Learning to respond to only one stimulus & to inhibit the response to all other stimuli.  
🗑
show Doesn’t occur in classical conditioning, occurs in OC, giving a response that is different from the response originally learned to that stimulus.  
🗑
show Conditioning based on previous learning  
🗑
show A reinforcer that’s rewarding in itself, such as food, water, & sex  
🗑
What are secondary reinforcers?   show
🗑
What is Contingency?   show
🗑
What is blocking?   show
🗑
show in OC, whenever partial reinforcement is given, SOR determines when & how often reinforcers will be delivered.  
🗑
show when an individual is rewarded on some, but not all trials. Ex: gambling  
🗑
show A reinforcement schedule in which the correct response is reinforced after a fixed length of time, since last reinforcement.  
🗑
What is Variable-Interval Scheduleing?   show
🗑
What is fixed-ratio schedule?   show
🗑
show a reinforcement schedule in which a varying number of correct responses must occur before reinforcement is presented.  
🗑
What is continuous reinforcement?   show
🗑
show learning that depends on mental processes that are not directly observable. Edward Chace Tolman a pioneer of cognitive learning. His experiment was a rat maze, and it was very famous. He supports behaviorism.  
🗑
What is Latent Learning?   show
🗑
What is a Cognitive Map?   show
🗑
What is insight?   show
🗑
Who pioneered insight?   show
🗑
What is a learning set/who started this?   show
🗑
show A view of learning that emphasizes the ability to learn by observing a model or receiving instructions, without firsthand experience by the learner. Albert Bandura Bobo doll experiment is his study  
🗑
What is observational or vicarious learning?   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
