- DI = habituation, II = reflexes, III = fatigue, IV = sensitisation
2Which of the following characterise habituation?

I - frequent and great number of responses
II - response increases in anticipation
III - slower but consistent response pattern- AFixed interval, fixed ratio, variable interval

- CVariable ratio, fixed interval, fixed ratio
14Which of these are true for generalisation and discrimination in instrumental learning?
- AWhether a behaviour is followed by a pleasant/unpleasant event and whether the cues linked to the response are still present will determine the probability of response.
- BAccess goal facilitates later trial and error learning.
- CBehaviour is controlled by situational cues only if they signal whether the response is going to be reinforced.
- DGeneralisation - reinforced responses occur in presence of cues similar to original Sd
- EGeneralisation - reinforced responses occur in presence of cues similar to original US
- FDiscrimination - learn to respond only when cue signals that the response will be reinforced (for S+)

18Which of the following are applications/examples of stimulus learning?
- ALearning by exemplar (e.g. Bhatt et al. pigeon study where had to learn to discriminate between table and chair)
