Learning

As conditions change we____new behaviours and____old ones

Why do we eliminate certain behaviours?

Learning theory

Give 2 advantages of learning theory

Name the 3 categories of learning

Single stimulus

Stimulus-stimulus

Response stimulus

Pavlovian conditioning is also known as...

Instrumental conditioning is also known as...

Habituation

Orienting response

An____response will cause you move towards an unexpected noise

Classical conditioning

Distinguish between innate and learned behaviours

Pavlov believed behaviour was____.

After Pavlov's experiments, what changed in terms of the dog's' salivation?

Habituation and classical conditioning both involve learning about____stimuli

Involves learning about relationships between our own responses and their consequences (effects have have on the environment)

What happens in Thorndike's law of effect experiment? (the one with the cat in the box)

Operant

Response amplitude

Acquisition

The more pairings introduced, the____the conditioned response

How is intensity related to the strength of the conditioned response?

Delayed presentation

Comment on the effectiveness of simultaneous presentation

Backward presentation

What may the effectiveness of trace presentation depend on?

Which method of presentation is most effective?

What does the optimal delay depend on?

Extinction

When does extinction occur?

Spontaneous recovery

True or false: Spontaneous recovery only happens once after extinction

Why does spontaneous recovery occur?

Total extinction

Higher order conditioning

True or false: first-order conditioning produces a higher CR strength than second-order

The tendency for stimuli similar to those used during learning elicit a reaction similar to the learned response

True or false: when presented with a slightly higher/lower tone than that presented in training, the animal will produce a lower response

Different consequences may follow the same behavior in different situations. When we respond differently in those different situations, we have formed a discrimination between the situations.
