- 1The Learning appraochTopic 3
- 2What is classical conditioning?A. Learning through association
- 3What was Pavlov's study about?A. - Inserted tube to collect saliva of the dog
- present dog with food = salvation even when the door opened - linked that when the door opened would get food
- paired the food with a bell and dog associated the stimulus with the food
- Similar bells would produce salvation - 4What happens during the before conditioning of Pavlov's study?A. the food - unconditioned stimulus = Salvation - unconditioned response
The bell - Natural stimulus = No salvation - Natural response - 5What happened in the during conditioning of Pavlov's study?A. Bell - neutral stimulus + Food - Unconditioned stimulus = salivation - unconditioned response
- 6What happened in the after conditioning of Pavlov's study?A. Bell - conditioned stimulus = Salivation - conditioned response
- 7Who conditioned little Albert?A. Watson and Rayner
- 8What did Watson and Rayner do to little Albert?A. They conditioned little Albert to be scared of white rats - this then progressed to anything white/furry
- 9What happened before the conditioning on little Albert?A. white rat - neutral stimulus = Baby - neutral response
loud noise - unconditioned stimulus = Baby crying - unconditioned reponse - 10What happens during conditioning of little Albert?A. white rat - neutral stimulus + loud noise - unconditioned response = baby crying - unconditioned response
- 11What happens after the conditioning of little Albert?A. white rat - conditioned stimulus = baby crying - conditioned response
- 12What does Generalisation and Discrimination mean?A. Generalisation = when the stimulus becomes generalised to other stimuli associated with that conditioned response
Discrimination = stimulus is not associated with the conditioned response - too different from original stimuli - 13What does extinction and spontaneous recovery mean?A. Extinction = CR is not permanently established as a response
SR - follow extinction - if the CS and UCS are paired together again - link is made much more quickly - 14What is operant conditioning?A. learning by consequence - positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement and punishment
- 15What does Positive reinforcement mean?A. Positive reinforcement - behaviour involves receiving something pleasant for a behaviour i.e. getting a sticker from a teacher for good work
- 16What does negative reinforcement mean?A. Negative reinforcement -
