Question
Answer
learning   show
🗑
habituation   show
🗑
show learning that certain events occur together, events may be 2 stimulus (classical conditioning) or a response and its consequences  
🗑
stimulus   show
🗑
cognitive learning   show
🗑
show a type of learning in which one learns to link two or more stimulus and anticipate events  
🗑
show views that psychology should be an objective science, studies behavior w/o reference to mental processes- most agree w/ the first and not the secon  
🗑
show classical conditioning, stimulus elicits no response before conditioning  
🗑
unconditioned response (UR)   show
🗑
show in classical conditioning- stimuli’s that unconditionally, naturally and automatically, triggers a response  
🗑
conditioned response (CR)   show
🗑
show in classical conditioning, the initial state, linking neural stimulus and an unconditioned stimulus to the neural stimulus begins triggering the conditioned response in operant conditioning, the strength ig of a reinforced response  
🗑
higher-order conditioning   show
🗑
extinction   show
🗑
show the reappearance after a pause, of an extinguished conditioned response  
🗑
show the tendency, once a response has been conditioned, for a stimuli similar to the conditioned stimulus to elicit similar responses  
🗑
discrimination   show
🗑
operant conditioning   show
🗑
show thorndike’s principle that behaviors followed by favorable consequences become more likely, behaviors followed by unfavorable become less likely  
🗑
show in operant conditioning research, chamber conditioning a bar or key that an animal can manipulate to obtain reinforcer; attached devices record the animal’s rate of bar pressing or key pecking  
🗑
reinforcement   show
🗑
show an operant conditioning procedure in which reinforcers guide behavior toward closer and closer approximations of desired behavior  
🗑
show in operant conditioning, stimulus that elicits a response after association w/ reinforcement  
🗑
positive reinforcement   show
🗑
show increasing behaviors by stopping or reinforcing negative stimuli, a negative reinforcer is any stimuli that, when removed after a response, strengthens the response  
🗑
show an innately reinforcing stimulus, such as one that satisfies a biological need  
🗑
show a stimulus that gains its reinforcing power through its association with a primary reinforcer  
🗑
show a pattern that defines how often a desired response will be reinforced  
🗑
show reinforcing a response only part of the time; results in slower acquisition of a response but much greater resistance to extinction  
🗑
fixed-ratio schedule   show
🗑
variable-ratio schedule   show
🗑
fixed-interval schedule   show
🗑
show a reinforcement schedule that reinforces a response at unpredictable time intervals  
🗑
punishment   show
🗑
show a system for electronically recording, amplifying, and feeding back into regarding a subtle physiological state, such as blood pressure or muscle tension  
🗑
show behavior that occurs as an automatic response to some stimulus  
🗑
operant behavior   show
🗑
cognitive map   show
🗑
show learning that occurs but is not apparent until there is an incentive to demonstrate it  
🗑
extrinsic motivation   show
🗑
show a sudden realization of a problem’s solution  
🗑
show a desire to perform a behavior effectively for its own sake  
🗑
coping   show
🗑
problem-focused coping   show
🗑
emotion-focused coping   show
🗑
learned helplessness   show
🗑
show the perception that chance or outside focus beyond our personal control determine over fate  
🗑
internal locus of control   show
🗑
show ability to control indulgences and delay short-tern gratification for greater long-term rewards  
🗑
show learning by observing others- social learning  
🗑
modeling   show
🗑
mirror neurons   show
🗑
pro social behavior   show
🗑
