Classical Conditioning Basics

Classical Conditioning Basics

1. Object Learning

   • Before conditioning
     • US (food) elicits UR (salivation)
       • NS (tuning fork) does not elicit Response (salivat)ion
   • During Conditioning
     • Acquisition: US (food) and NS (tuning fork) paired enough times to elicit response (Salivation)
   • After Conditioning
     • CS (Tuning fork) elicits CR (salivation) alone.

2. Acquisition

   • Extinction
     • Rapid Reacquisition
       • Even after complete extinction, conditioning a second time is faster than the initial training
       • Spontaneous Recovery
         • This reappearance of a CR after extinction is called spontaneous recovery.
         • Disinhibition
           • A novel situation or stimulus can make an extinguished CS effective again. This is known as disinhibition, on the assumption that extinction training produced an inhibition of the CS-CR association.
           • Dishabituation
             • when we respond to an old stimulus as if it were new again
     • The procedure of re- peatedly presenting the CS alone is called extinction. When, as a result of this, the CR no longer occurs (or occurs no more than it did prior to conditioning), we say that it has been extinguished.
   • Acquisition refers to the first stages of learning when a response is established. In classical conditioning, it refers to the period when the stimulus comes to evoke the conditioned response.
