Question
Answer
Adaptive Significance   show
🗑
show Classically conditioned nausea and vomiting that occur when cancer patients are exposed to stimuli associated with their treatment  
🗑
Applied Behavior Analysis   show
🗑
Aversion Theory   show
🗑
show A type of punishment in which an operant response is weakened by the subsequent presentation of a noxious stimulus  
🗑
show A form of learning in which an organism learns a response to avoid an undesirable consequence  
🗑
show An operant conditioning procedure used to develop a sequence of responses by reinforcing each response with the opportunity to perform the next response  
🗑
show Procedure in which a formerly neutral stimulus comes to elicit a conditioned response by virtue of being paired with an unconditioned stimulus that naturally elicits a similar response.  
🗑
show A mental representation of the spacial layout of an area  
🗑
show A response to a conditioned stimulus  
🗑
show A stimulus that comes to evoke a conditioned response after being paired with an unconditioned stimulus  
🗑
Conditioned Taste Aversion   show
🗑
show A reinforcement schedule in which each response of a particular type is followed by reinforcement  
🗑
Discrimination   show
🗑
Discriminative Stimulus   show
🗑
Escape Conditioning   show
🗑
Exposure Therapies   show
🗑
Extinction   show
🗑
Fixed Action Pattern   show
🗑
Fixed Interval (FI) Schedule   show
🗑
show A reinforcement schedule in which reinforcement is given after a constant number of responses of a particular type  
🗑
show A decrease in the strength of a response to a repeated stimulus  
🗑
show A neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus after it is paired with another conditioned stimulus  
🗑
Insight   show
🗑
show The tendency for instinctive behaviors to override a conditioning procedure, thus making it difficult to create or maintain a conditioned response  
🗑
Latent Learning   show
🗑
Law of Effect   show
🗑
show A relatively enduring change in an organism's behavior or performance capabilities that occurs as a result of experience  
🗑
show A response is strengthened by the subsequent removal of an aversive stimulus  
🗑
Observational Learning   show
🗑
show A type of learning in which behavior is modified by its consequences, such as reinforcement and punishment  
🗑
Operant Discrimination   show
🗑
show Occurs when the absence of reinforcement for a previously reinforced response causes that response to weaken and eventually stop  
🗑
show An operant response occurs to a new antecedent stimulus that is similar to the original antecedent stimulus  
🗑
Partial Reinforcement   show
🗑
show A response is strengthened by the subsequent presentation of a stimulus  
🗑
show The notion that animals have become biologically predisposed to learn some associations more readily than other associations  
🗑
Primary Reinforcers   show
🗑
Punishment   show
🗑
show A response is strengthened by an outcome that follows it  
🗑
show A type of punishment in which an operant response is weakened by the subsequent removal of a stimulus that was not the cause of the original response  
🗑
Secondary Reinforcers   show
🗑
Self-efficacy   show
🗑
show An operant conditioning procedure in which reinforcement begins with a behavior that the organism can already perform and then is made contingent on behaviors that increasingly approximate the final desired behavior  
🗑
Skinners Box   show
🗑
show A cognitive behavioral approach to personality developed by Bandura and Mischel that emphasizes the role of social learning, cognitive processes, and self-regulation  
🗑
Spontaneous Recovery   show
🗑
Stimulus Control   show
🗑
show A conditioned response occurs to stimuli other than the original conditioned stimulus, based on the similarity of these stimuli to the conditioned stimulus  
🗑
Token Economy   show
🗑
Two-factor Theory of Avoidance Learning   show
🗑
show A response that is elicited by a specific stimulus without prior learning  
🗑
Unconditioned Stimulus   show
🗑
show A reinforcement schedule in which reinforcement follows the first response of a particular type that occurs after an average but variable time interval following the last reinforced response  
🗑
show A reinforcement schedule in which reinforcement is based on an average but variable number of responses of a particular type  
🗑


   

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.
