Learning Styles-Courtney Specht

1. Non Associative

   • Sensitization
     • exposure to a strong stimuli, ends up with a bigger reaction
       • hearing a fire alarm causes a heightened reaction
   • Habituation
     • Decreased response after repetition
       • ex. constantly hearing air conditioning and somewhat tuning it out

2. Associative

   • classical conditioning
     • opposite of operant, behavior is learned unconsciously
   • Observant
     • watching someone or something in order to learn or pick up on it
   • operant conditioning
     • learning what benefits and what does not through experience
