- 1Define learningdurable change in behaviour that arises because of experience.
- 2What is an advantage of learning?Allows us to adapt our environment
- 3What is an orienting response?Innate ( in born; right from birth) ability to shift attention to novel or surprising events
- Bias toward novelty
- Novel stimuli & events are potentially important [ex. Hear a noise in bed] - 4What is habituation ? Example- Reduced responsiveness to a repeated stimulus
- Learn to ignore things that are irrelevant
- Examples: watch and glasses; you don’t notice you’re wearing them after a while
- Lottery winners and paraplegics - 5What is sensitization?- Opposite of habituation
- Increased responsiveness to a repeated stimulus
- Intense stimuli, frequency (repeated beeping)
- Arousal
- Exaggerated response to a response to unexpected stimuli (horror movie) - 6What is classical conditioning?- Form an association between events happening in our lives (learning associations between stimuli and events)
- 7what is a UCS?- Unconditioned stimulus – stimulus that triggers (elicit) a response automatically (without learning)
- 8What is a UCR?- Unconditioned response – response that happens without learning (automatically)
- 9What is a CS?a stimulus that triggers a response because it was learned
- 10What is a CR?response that happens because it was learned
- 11Can tolerance be context specific?Yes
- 12What is extincton?weakening of link between stimulus and CR [weakening of conditioning response (CS) is presented without UCS)
- 13What is acquisition?CCS & UCS paired
- 14What is spontaneous recovery?(CS again presented): extinction if UCS again withheld [reamergence or recovery of an extinguished CR after a period of non-exposure to the CS
- 15What is stimulus generalization?- Stimuli that are similar to CS will also illicit CR.
- Tone of similar pitch to CS will illicit salivation - 16What is stimulus discrimination?- Stimuli that are different from CS will not illicit CR
- 17What is second order conditioning?Procedure in which an established CS (CS1) is used to condition a second neutral stimulus (CS2).
- 18What are 3 factors that influence classical conditioning?Strength, Contiguity, Predictability of CS, Preparedness
