1How is learning defined?
- AA relatively temporary change in behavior due to experience.
- BA relatively permanent change in behavior due to experience.
2How does observational learning differ from imitation?
- AObservational learning is the same thing as imitation, thus they do not differ.
- BObservational learning takes into account the consequences of the model; imitation does not necessarily do this.
- CObservational learning does not take into account the consequences of the model, but imitation does.
3The tendency for the effects of a learning experience to spread or transfer is called what?
- ADiscrimination
- BGeneralization
- CStimulus control
4A relatively flat generalization gradient indicates how much discrimination?
- ALittle or none
- BA considerable amount
5The tendency for behavior to occur in certain situations but not others, or the ability to tell the difference between similar stimuli, is known as what?
- AStimulus control
- BGeneralization
- CDiscrimination
6A discriminative stimulus indicates which of the following?
- AThat a behavior may be reinforced
- BThat a behavior will be punished
- CThat a behavior will not be reinforced nor punished
7Which classical conditioning discrimination procedure involves alternating the presentation of the S+ and the S-delta?
- ASimultaneous discrimination training
- BSuccessive discrimination training
- CMatching-to-sample
- DErrorless discrimination training
- ENone of these
8Which operant discrimination training procedure involves presenting both stimuli at the same time?
- AMatching-to-sample
- BSuccessive discrimination training
- CSimultaneous discrimination training
- DErrorless discrimination training
9How would you know that you had your subject under stimulus control?
- AThe behavior regularly occurs in the presence of the discriminative stimulus (S+).
- BThe behavior regularly occurs in the presence of the S-delta.
- CThe behavior seldom occurs in the presence of the S+.
10What is a retention interval?
- AA period during which learning or practice of the behavior occurs.
- BA period during which learning or practice of the behavior does not occur.
11Forgetting always means that a behavior is less likely to occur.
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
12The number of correct responses per minute is known as?
- AFrequency
- BFluency
- CLatency
- DIntensity
13When does retroactive interference occur?
- AWhen older, previously learned material interferes with recalling newer material.
- BWhen newly learned material interferes with recalling older, previously learned material.
14The tendency to imitate irrelevant acts is referred to as what?
- AGeneralized imitation
- BOver-imitation
- CVicarious learning
15Acquisition of a fear of snakes in monkeys through vicarious classical conditioning involved the pairing of what stimuli?
- AThe snake as the neutral stimulus; another monkey screaming as the fear-inducing stimulus.
- BThe other monkey screaming as the neutral stimulus; the snake as the fear-inducing stimulus.
16The tendency of an animal to revert to a fixed action patterned is referred to as what?
- AImprinting
- BInstinctive drift
- CCritical period
- DReflex
17What type of memory is very temporary, disappearing if you don't do anything with it?
- ASensory memory
- BShort term memory
- CWorking memory
18Not being able to see beyond what an item or tool is typically used for is known as what?
- AConcept learning
- BFunctional fixedness
- CMental mapping
- DProblem solving
19Every time Micah's puppy hears the doorbell ring, it begins to bark and runs to the door. It eventually starts to do the same thing when it hears a doorbell in a commercial. What concept would best explain this?
- ADiscrimination
- BStimulus control
- CGeneralization
- DTrial-and-error learning
20Micah is going to be in his school's production of "Rent" and wants to be able to perform as well on opening night as he does during rehearsal. What would be the best advice for him?
- ATo make the rehearsal environment as different as possible from the performance environment.
- BTo make the rehearsal environment as similar as possible to the performance environment.
21Sean and Ethan are attending a wedding reception with an open bar. The much-anticipated appearance of the bartender is an example of what?
- ADiscriminative stimulus (S+)
- BS-delta
22The phenomenon that performance of learned behavior varies with the physiological state during learning and retention is known as what?
- AState-dependent forgetting
- BCue-dependent remembering
- CCue-dependent forgetting
- DState-dependent learning
23In an attempt to see if a cat could learn to escape a puzzle box by merely observing another cat escape a puzzle box, what were E.L. Thorndike's findings?
- AThe observer cat could successfully escape the puzzle box by watching the model cat.
- BThe observer cat only learned to escape the puzzle box by trying the same operant learning procedures performed by the other cat.
24With regard to observational learning, the only consequences that matter are those that happen to the model.
- AVerdadeiro
- BFalso
25Why is the attractiveness, likability, and prestige of a model so important to observational learning?
- ABecause those are all qualities we would like to possess, therefore we are likely to mimic a model who has those qualities.
- BBecause those qualities induce us, the observers, to attend to the model, thus making us more likely to learn from the model.
