- 1Define Learninghbjhb
- 2Define and give examples of inhereted behaviour-Something which come naturally to you
- e.g.Talking, listening - 3What are different types of acquired responses?- Skills and abilities
- Problem solving
- Physical activities
- Reasoning
- Use of language
- Habit patterns
- Attitudes, opinions, ideas and values - 4What is learning?- 'The act or experience of one that learns knowledge or skills acquired by instruction or study'
- Learning refers to the relatively permanent change in behaviour (or potential for behaviour) brought about experience - 5Explain behaviour that is relatively permanent- Changes in behaviour due to learning are relatively permanent
- Excludes changes which are temporary due to fatigue, influence of drugs
- New experiences can override perviously learned behaviour - 6Explain changes in the potential- Learning reflects a change in the potential for a behaviour
- Learning does not automatically lead to a change in behaviour
- The change may not be evident until a situation arises in which a new behaviour can occur
- Learning can't be observed directly. It is inferred from the behaviour that is observed
- Can't physically see skill -e.g. driving a car, can't see it until you physically get in - 7Explain the result of experience in learning- Excludes changes due to maturation, disease or physical damage
-e.g. person has skill of walking- accident- can't walk anymore- must learn again - 8DON DYKE (FIND REAL NAME) THEORY- LAW OF EFFECT- Experiments with cats:
- behaviour is controlled by its consequences
- behaviour that result in please consequences will be more likely in the future (praising a good answer)
- behaviours that result in unpleasant consequences will be less likely in the future (being told its not a good answer) - 9Explain the Law of frequency- An activity repeated several times has the tendency to be established permanently
- e.g. driving a car, writing in a particular language, walking - 10Explain the law of recency- Any activity which is done recently has the advantage of being repeated once again because of fresh experience
- 11How does learning take place? Explain the three paradigms- Classical Conditioning
- Operant conditioning
- Observation learning/ social learning - 12Explain conditioning- Involves forming associations between environmental stimuli and responses
- Two types of conditioning:
- Classical conditioning
- Operant conditioning - 13Explain Classical Conditioning- Ivan pAVLOV
- Studies on digestive system
- Concepts of learning
- 1904 Nobel prize in Medicine
- Experiments with dogs: Notice that dogs drool in anticipation of food - 14Define Classical conditioningA form of learning in which one stimulus is repeatedly paired with another, as a a result of such pairing, the neutral stimulus gains the capacity to evoke reactions which at first could be evoked only by the stimulus with which it is paired
- 15Explain the terms of conditioning, stimulus, response and reinforcementConditioning: association between stimuli and responses
stimulus: any object, event or energy that produces response
response: any activity which follows a stimulus
reinforcement: which strengthens a relationship between stimulus and response - 16Classical conditioning definitions-Unconditioned stimulus (UCS): a stimulus that has the ability to produce a specified response before conditioning begins (FOOD)
-Unconditioned response (UCR): the response produced by the UCS (SALIVATION PRODUCED BY FOOD)
-Conditioned stimulus (CS): an initially neutral stimulus that comes to produce a new response because it is associated with the UCS (BELL)
-Conditioned response (CR): the response produced by the CS (SALIVATION PRODUCED BY THE BELL) - 17Explain the Classical Conditioning ModelINSERT PICTURE HERE
- 18Who is John Watson?- first recognised the implications of classical conditioning in understanding the human behaviour
- 19Explain Watson's experiement- Albert's experiment
- with the rat- causing a phobia
- classical conditioning paradigm - 20Acquisition of phobia (INSERT PIC)INSERT HERE
- 21Explain operant conditioning- Skinner : most behaviours can be explained through operant conditioning
- the learning of a new association between behavoiur and its consequences
- behaviour is modified according to its consequences
- the probability a behaviour will increase or decrease depends on the reinforcement
INSERT MORE HERE - 22Explain Skinner's boxINSERT PIC HERE (SEE IPHONE)
- 23Explain reinforcement and punishment in operant conditioning- Reinforcement
- An environmental stimulus that occurs after behaviour and increases likelihood that the behaviour will occur in the future (being told it was a good answer)
Punishment
- An environmental stimulus that occurs after the behaviour and decrease likelihood that the behaviour will occur in the future (being told it was a bad answer) - 24Explain positive reinforcement and negative reinforcementPositive reinforcement
- the presentation of a pleasant stimulus after a behaviour makes the begaviour more likely to occur in the future e.g. well done
negative reinforcement INSERT MORE HERE - 25Explain the positive and negative punishmentPositive punishment
- the presentation of an aversive stimulus after a behaviour reduces the likelihood of the behaviour occurring in the future e.g. speeding fine
Negative punishment
- the removal of pleasant stimulus after a behaviour reduces the likelihood of the behaviour occurring in the future e.g. removal of tv watching time - 26Explain shaping: reinforcement successive approximations- the process of teaching complex behaviour by rewarding closer and closer approximations of the desired behaviour
- shaping is the selective reinforcement of behaviours that gradually approach INSERT MORE HERE - 27Explain the schedule of reinforcement- The pattern or reinforcer (or punisher) delivery affects the pattern of responding
Continuous reinforcement schedules:
- reinforcer is obtained after every response
- good for training new behaviour
Intermittent/ Partial reinforcement schedule
- reinforcer is not obtained for every response
- more resistant to extinction, behaviour persists for longer - 28SCHEDULES OF REINFORCEMENTRATION SCHEDULES
based on the number f units of behaviour:
- Fixed ratio: reinforced every nth response
- variable ratio: on average, reinforced after every nth response
Interval schedules: based on the unit of time
- Fixed interval: reinforced after specific time period has elapsed
- variable interval: reinforced after an average time period has elapsed - 29Applications of operant conditioningBehavioural therapy
- reducing thumb sucking
- reducing tantrums
- smoking cessation
Behavioural modification
- token economies
- remedial - 30Social Learning- Observational learning
- 31Explain observational learning- Is learning by observing the behaviour of others (models)
- Imitation of a model's behaviour depends on:
- prestige of the model
- likeability and attractiveness of the model
- whether the model was rewarded or punished for his/ her behaviour (vicarious conditioning) - 32Explain who and what the Bobo doll experiment is- Bandura
- Learning from observation
- how people learn observing other individuals - 33Explain Bobo doll experimenttwo children
- group 1 watched video of adult acting aggressively toward BOBO doll
- group 2 saw no video
- when placed in a room given the opportunity to play with the bOBO doll, those children who had seen the video acted more aggressively toward the doll- especailly when they saw the adult being rewarded for aggressive behaviour - 34Explain application of observational learning- Treatment of phobias
- Behaviours INSERT MORE HERE - 35Explain cognition and learning- Cognitive-social theory argues that we form expectancies about the consequences of our behaviours
- Locus of control: the expectancy of wether or not fate determines outcomes in life
- Internal locus: believe that their actions determine their fate (start blaming teacher)
- External locus: believe that their lives are governed by forces outside their control (high- i was responsible of not passing something) - 36Explain learned helplessness: Seligman- The expectancy that one cannot escape aversive events
- Controversially studied by Seligman INSERT MORE HERE - 37Application of learning principles- explanation of abnormal behaviour by classical conditioning:
- phobias
- anxiety
- OCD
- alcohol and drug use disorders - 38Application of learning principles- Behaviour therapy techniques
- behaviour modification (decreasing problem behaviours, increasing adaptive behaviours): in mentally handicapped, chronic schizophrenics, etc.
- behavioural medicine: application of learning principles in general medicine
- explanation of psychosomatic disorders such as asthma, peptic ulcers - 39Explain Biofeedback- Technique used for individuals to help them with anxiety
- EMG
- GSR
-Heart rate
- EEG - 40—
