- 1Classical Conditioning(pavlovian) A learning procedure; when a stimulus that initially produces no particular response is followed several times by an unconditional stimulus that produces a defensive or appetitive response, the first stimulus no called a conditional stimulus itself evokes the response now called the conditional response) pairing an unconditioned stimulus with a conditioned stimulus. The animal has no control (tone than shock) the animal can’t change the shock or tone.
- 2Instrumental Conditioning (Operant Conditioning)A learning procedure whereby the effects of a particular behavior in a particular situation increase (reinforce) or decrease (punish) the probability of the behavior
- 3Perceptual LearningLearning to recognize a particular stimulus
- 4Motor LearningLearning to make a new response
- 5Hebbian PlasticityThe hypothesis proposed by Donald Hebb that the basis of learning involves strengthening of a synapse that is repeatedly active when the postsynaptic neuron fires.
- 6HEBB RuleCells that fire together, wire together
- 7Long term Potentiation (LTP)A long-term increase in the excitability of a neuron to a particular synaptic input caused by repeated high-frequency activity of that input.
(Potentiate= to strengthen; to make more potent) - 8How can we determine the NMDA receptors are required for LTP?The Doogie mice showed increased levels of learning they also had over expressionof NMDA receptors
- 9What two glutamatergic receptors are the primary movers for LTP?NMDA Receptor; AMPA Receptors
- 10Be able to describe the molecular process that allows increased trafficking of AMPA receptors to the post-synaptic membrane.Activation of the neuron by other neurons coupled with NMDA receptors activation leads to AMPA receptor trafficking to the post-synaptic membrane.
