Classical Conditioning |
a learning procedure in which associations are made between a natural stimulus and a neutral stimulus
|
|
|
Learning |
relatively permanent change in a behavioral tendency that results from an experience
|
|
|
Neutral Stimulus |
a stimulus that has nothing to do with the prior stimulus and does not elicit a response (Tuning Fork)
|
|
|
Unconditioned Stimulus |
Unconditioned Stimulus – an event that leads to a certain predictable response usually without previous training (Food) |
|
|
Unconditioned Response |
a reaction that occurs naturally when the unconditioned stimulus is presented (Salivation at food) (Reflex) |
|
|
Conditioned Stimulus |
a once-neutral event that elicits a given response after a period of training in which it has been paired with an unconditioned stimulus |
|
|
Conditioned response |
learned reaction to a conditioned stimulus |
|
|
Generalization |
Responding similarly to similar stimuli (Responding the same way to a circle and an oval) |
|
|
Discrimination |
the ability to respond differently to similar but distinct stimuli (responding differently to circle and an oval) |
|
|
Extinction |
the gradual disappearance of a conditioned response when the conditioned stimulus is repeatedly presented without the unconditioned stimulus (No longer salivate at Tuning fork) |
|
|
Spontaneous Recovery |
regain the conditioned response after a rest period from extinction |
