- 1what is the definition of learning?a lasting change in behaviour that is the result of experience
- 2what is habituation?a decline in an organism's response to a stimulus
- 3what is dishabituation?in an increase in a response caused by a change in something familiar
- 4what is classical conditioning?when a stimulus evokes a response because of being paired with a stimulus that naturally evokes a reponse
- 5what is an unconditioned stimulus?a normally occurring stimulus that elicits an unconditioned reponse
- 6what is an unconditioned response?a normally occurring response to a stimulus
- 7what is a conditioned stimulus?a stimulus that is originally neutral but can be conditioned into producing a response by pairing with an US
- 8what is a conditioned response?a response to a CS produced by pairing it with an US
- 9How does conditioning effect drug use?it can create a drug tolerance because the UR and the CR cancel each other out - UR=full drug effect, CR= worsened mood, increased pain sensitivity
- 10what happens when there is CR but no UR?this will cause a craving for the UR, the body will have a compensatory response to help stabilise they body during drug influence but will not experience the effects of the drug
- 11what is second order conditioning?creating a new conditioned stimulus for the old conditioned stimulus, i.e. drinking coke before you have a cigarette
- 12what is extinction?when the CS is repeatedly given without the US and gradually the CR is reduced
- 13what is spontaneous recovery?it is the re-emergence of a previously extinguished CR
- 14what is generalisation?responding in the same way to similar stimuli, i.e. a dog responding to a command given by someone with a deeper voice
- 15what is a CS+?a conditioned stimulus that tells you something WILL happen - allows you to prepare
- 16what is a CS-?a stimulus that tells you something WILL NOT happen - tells you you can relax
- 17what is backward pairing?showing the CS after the US - not effective
- 18what is simultaneous pairing?showing the US and CS at the same time - not effective
- 19what is forward pairing?showing the CS before the US - effective because it allows for preparation, is informative
- 20what is blocking?when a new stimulus is paired with a CS and because it is not informative on its own, when it is shown alone there is no response
- 21what is one trial learning?usually conditioning happens after repeatedly pairing the US and the CS - sometimes this can happening after only one pairing, this happens a lot with food
- 22what is an excitatory connection?CS = CR
- 23what is an inhibitory connection?CS does not equal CR
- 24what is homeostasis?tendency towards a stable physiological state
- 25what is biological preparedness?you form associations between stimuli in order to allow you to prepare
