Week 2 - Classical Conditioning

Question 1 of 8

Select one of the following:

  • Stimulus substitution theory

  • Preparatory response theory

  • Compensatory response theory

  • The Rescorla Wagner Model

Explanation

Question 2 of 8

1

Razran found that human subjects could generalise their conditioning across words that are semantically similar. He also found a result for contrasting or opposite semantic meanings. This effect is called...

Select one of the following:

  • Semantic Generalisation

  • Semantic Stroop Effect

  • Semantic Discrimination

  • Semantic Contrast Effect

Explanation

Question 3 of 8

1

Latent Inhibition is when...

Select one of the following:

  • a neutral stimulus is previously learned to not be a predictor of food and so takes longer to learn a neutral stimulus/unconditioned stimulus connection.

  • a novel stimulus disrupts a learned conditioned response.

  • the conditioned response occurs closer to the onset of the unconditioned stimulus.

  • one component of a compound stimulus (light/tone) is learned to be a signal of no unconditioned stimulus.

Explanation

Question 4 of 8

1

Which of the following is most effective for conditioning?

Select one of the following:

  • Trace conditioning

  • Delayed conditioning

  • Simultaneous conditioning

  • Backward conditioning

  • Excitatory conditioning

Explanation

Question 5 of 8

1

External inhibition is...

Select one of the following:

  • when a novel stimulus disrupts a conditioned response.

  • when a neutral stimulus has been previously associated with no unconditioned stimulus.

  • when in a compound stimulus (light/tone) one of the conditioned stimulus are learned to signal no unconditioned stimulus.

  • when a conditioned response occurs closer to the onset of the unconditioned response.

Explanation

Question 6 of 8

1

Conditioned inhibition is...

Select one of the following:

  • when a neutral stimulus is learned to predict the absence of an unconditioned response.

  • when a novel stimulus inhibits a conditioned response.

  • when a conditioned response is delayed till closer to the onset of the unconditioned stimulus.

  • when a neutral stimulus is not associated in any way with the unconditioned stimulus.

Explanation

Question 7 of 8

1

Inhibition of delay...

Select one of the following:

  • is when a novel stimulus inhibits a conditioned response.

  • is when the conditioned response occurs closer to the onset of the unconditioned stimulus.

  • is when a previously blocked stimulus takes longer to learn.

  • only occurs when using simultaneous conditioning.

Explanation

Question 8 of 8

1

Disinhibition of delay is...

Select one of the following:

  • when a conditioned response that is now occurring closer to the onset of an unconditioned stimulus happens earlier when a novel stimulus is introduced.

  • similar to conditioned inhibition.

  • when a conditioned response occurs closer to the onset of an unconditioned stimulus.

  • when a previously habituated response is sensitised by a novel stimulus.
