LEARNING PRINCIPLES
Cards in this deck (26)
- 1WHAT IS LEARNING?The relatively permeant change in behaviour or knowledge which results from practise or experience
- 2WHAT IS CLASSICAL CONDITONINGA learning process in which a originally neutral stimulus, by repeated pairing with a stimulus that normally produces a response, comes to produce a similar or even identical response.
CLASSIC = Little Albert - 3NAME AN EXAMPLE OF REAL LIFE AND HEALTH FOR CLASSICAL CONDITIONINGReal life: advertising (e.g coca cola)
Health: Fear of needles after an unpleasant experience - 4What is systematic desensitisation?Systematic desensitisation is a form off counterconditioning that trains the client to maintain in a relaxed state when shown fear inducing stimuli.
- 5What is operant conditoning“Study in the way in which behaviour is modified by its consequences - a conditioning procedure in which behaviour becomes more or less probable depending on whether the behaviour has been reinforced or punished”
- 6Acquisition?Learning phase during which a response is established
- 7Extinction?Gradual reduction and eventual elimination of the response after a stimulus is presented repeatedly
- 8Spontaneous recovery?Sudden re-emergence of an extinguished response after a delay
- 9Stimulus discriminationDisplaying a less pronounced response to stimuli that desired from the original stimulus
- 10Stimulus generalisationEliciting a response to stimuli similar to, but not identical to, the original stimulus
- 11What is primary reinforcement?Events that are inherently reinforcing because they satisfy biological needs
- 12What is secondary reinforcement?Reinforcements that are learn't
- 13What is the procedure of positive reinforcementPresenting a desirable stimulus
- 14What effect does positive reinforcement have on behaviour?Increases chances of behaviour happening again
- 15Examples of positive reinforcement are...• Getting good marks for studying hard
• Feeling good after exercise - 16What is the procedure of negative reinforcement?Removing an undesirable stimulus
- 17What effect does negative reinforcement have on behaviour?Increases the chance of the behaviour happening again
- 18What are some examples of negative reinforcement?• Putting on sunscreen to avoid sunburn
Taking medication to stop headache - 19What is the procedure of positive punishmentPresenting a stimulus
- 20What effect does positive punishment have on behaviour?Decreases the chances of the behaviour happening again
- 21Examples of positive punishment are?• Smacking a child for bad behaviour
• Use of physical restraint to stop a child from self-injury - 22What is the procedure of negative punishment?Removing a stimulus
- 23What effect does negative reinforcement have on behaviourDecreases the chances of the behaviour happening again
- 24Examples of negative punishment• Withdrawal of attention when the child throws a tantrum
• Activities being taken away from patients with anorexia if they wont eat - 25What was the purpose of the bobo doll experimentChildren learn a significant amount of the behaviours through observation
- 26Health related examples of modeling• Someone looking better after they quit smoking
• Someone displaying more energy after exercising regularly.
Observing friends who smoke and booze drink having more fun
