- 1Learninga permanent change in behavior brought about by experience
- 2Classical Conditioning(Involuntary) a type of learning in which a neutral stimulus come to bring about a response after it is paired with a stimulus that naturally brings about a response.
- 3Who is Ivan Pavlova Medical doctor/ physiologist he studied the digestive system using dogs.
- 4Neutral Stimuluscomes to bring about a response after it is: pairs with a stimulus that naturally brings about that response.---- conditioning occurs.
- 5unconditioned stimulus (UCS)a stimulus that naturally brings about a particular response without having been learned.
- 6unconditioned response (UCR)a response that is natural and needs no training (ex. salivation at the smell of food)
- 7conditioned stimulus (CS)a once- neutral stimulus that has been paired with an unconditional stimulus to bring about a resins formally caused only by the unconditioned stimulus
- 8conditioned response (CR)a response that, after conditioning, follows a previously neutral stimulus (ex. salvation at the ringing of a bell)
- 9Extinctionoccurs with a previously conditioned response decreases in frequency and disappears.
- 10spontaneous recoveryreemergence of an extinguished conditioned response after a period of rest and with no further conditioning.
- 11AcquisitionConditioned stimulus + Unconditioned Stimulus
- 12ExtinctionConditioned Stimulus alone
- 13Spontaneous Recovery of conditioned responseextinction follows
- 14Stimulus generalizationStimuli that are similar to the original stimulus
- 15Stimulus discriminationability to differentiate between stimuli.
- 16operant conditioning(Voluntary) learning in which a voluntary response is strengthened or weakened.
- 17positive reinforcementsomething being given to the dog
- 18negative reinforcementsomething is taken from dog
- 19positive punishmentsomething given to the dog
- 20negative punishmentsomething is taken from dog
- 21thorndikes law of effectresponses that lead to satisfying consequences are more likely to be repeated.
- 22Reinforcementprocess by which a stimulus increases the probability that a preceding behavior will be repeated.
- 23positive reinforcersstimulus added to the environment that brings about an increase in a preceding response
- 24negative reinforcementunpleasant stimulus
- 25positive punishmentapplication of an unpleasant stimulus
- 26negative punishmentremoval of something pleasant
- 27continuous reinforcementreinforcement fo a behavior everytime it occurs.
- 28partial (intermittent) reinforcement schedulereinforcing of a behavior some but not all of the time.
- 29fixed ratio schedulereinforcement is given only after a specific number of responses
- 30variable-ratio scheduleoccurs after a varying number of responses
- 31fixed-interval scheduleprovides reinforcement for a response only if a fixed time period has elapsed.
- 32Stimulus control training- Behavior is reinforced in the presence of a specific stimulus, but not in its absence
- 33Discriminative stimulus- Signals the likelihood that reinforcement will follow a response
- 34Behavior modificationPromoting the frequency of desirable behaviors and decreasing unwanted ones
