An organisms automatic (or natural) response to a stimulus.
B.
Training of an organism to remove or terminate an unpleasant stimulus.
C.
A stimulus that does not initially elicit any part of an unconditioned response.
D.
Conditioning in which desirable behavior is reinforced with valueless objects, which can be accumulated and exchanged for valued rewards.
E.
A pattern of reinforcement in which changing amounts of time must elapse before a response will obtain reinforcement.
F.
Technique in which the desired behavior is "molded" by first reward is any act similar to that behavior and then regarding even closer approximation to the desired behavior reward.

J.

K.
A once neutral event that elicits a given response after a period of training in which it has been paired with (occurred just before) an unconditioned stimulus.
L.

M.
Stimulus such as money that becomes rewarding through its link with a primary reinforcer.
N.
Learning in which a certain action is reinforced or punished, resulting in corressponding increases or decreases in occurrence.
O.

P.
An event that elicits a certain predictable response typically without previous training.

R.
The gradual dis appearance of an unconditioned response when the conditioned stimulus is repeatedly presented without the unconditioned stimulus.

T.
Training of an organism to respond so as to prevent the occurence of an unpleasant stimulus.
