undergraduate Learning & Cognition PSY 318 (Aversive vs Appetitive Conditioning) Mapa Mental sobre Aversive vs Appetitive Conditioning, criado por kellyjeanbean em 14-09-2013.
A type of conditioning in which the
unconditioned stimulus or reinforcer is
an unpleasant event, a stimulus that
elicits aversion and withdrawal
response
Aversive Stimulus Noxious or
unpleasant stimulus that elicits
aversion and/or withdrawal responses
In psychology, aversives are
unpleasant stimuli that induce changes
in behavior through negative
consequence
One example of aversive conditioning is
applying a foul-tasting substance on a nail
biter's fingernails to prevent nail biting.
Unconditioned aversive stimuli naturally
result in pain or discomfort and are often
associated with biologically harmful or
damaging substances or events. Examples
include extreme heat or cold, bitter flavors,
electric shock, loud noises, and pain.
Appetitive
Conditioning
A type of conditioning in which the
unconditioned stimulus or reinforcer
is a pleasant event, a stimulus the
subject tends to approach
Appetitive Stimulus is an
unconditioned stimulus that
an organism will approach
Appetitive Behavior: The initial component
of an elicited behavior sequence. Appetitive
behavior is a variable, occurs in response to
general spatial cues, and serves to bring the
organism in contact with releasing stimuli
that elicit consummatory responses
Example of Experiment Skinner Box with Pigeons, CS is a light projected onto
a small plastic disk or response key above the food cup. Pecks at the key are
automatically detected by an electronic sensing circuit. The key light comes on
for a few seconds and a small amount of food appears. After a # of pairings of
the key light with food, the pigeons come to approach and peck the key as
soon as it is lit. The conditioned approach and pecking behavior develop even
if the key light is far fr from food cup. The light becomes the signal for the food,
the pigeons go to light for food this is also known as SIGN TRACKING.
Because the procedure results in the pigeons pecking the response key
without elaborate intervention by the experimenter the procedure is called
AUTOSHAPING
