Backward conditioning
|
A respondent conditioning procedure in which the unconditioned stimulus (US) is presented before the conditioned stimulus (CS). this is the least effective type of respondent conditioning procedure
|
|
Conditioned Emotional Response (CER)
|
a type of conditioned response in which an emotional response such as fear, anger, or happiness is elicited by a conditioned stimulus in the process of respondent conditioning
|
|
Conditioned Response (CR)
|
in respondent conditioning, a CR is elicited by a conditioned stimulus. the conditioned stimulus acquires the power to elicit the CR by its repeated pairing with an unconditioned stimulus or another conditioned stimulus
|
|
Conditioned Stimulus (CS)
|
a previously neutral stimulus that has been paired with an unconditioned stimulus. once established in this way, the CS elicits a conditioned response similar to the unconditioned stimulus
|
|
Delay Conditioning
|
a type of respondent conditioning in which the CS is presented and the US is then presented before the termination of the CS
|
|
Higher-order conditioning
|
the process by which, when a neutral stimulus is paired with a CS a number of times, the neutral stimulus becomes a CS that will then elicit the same CR
|
|
Operant Behavior
|
behavior that acts on the environment to produce an immediate consequence and, in turn, is strengthened by that consequence
|
|
Operant Conditioning
|
occurs when a behavior in a particular situatin is followed by a reinforcing consequence, thus making the behavior more likely to to occur in similar circumstances in the future
|
|
Respondent Behavior
|
behavior that is elicited by a prior stimulus. an UR and CR are respondent behaviors because they are elicited by US and CS respectively
|
|
Respondent Conditioning
|
A process in which a neutral stimulus is paired with an US. the US elicits an UR. As a result of pairing the neutral stimulus with the US, the neutral stimulus becomes a CS that will elicit a response similar to the UR, called a conditioned response (CR)
|
|
Respondent extinction
|
The process by which, when a CS is no longer paired with an US, the CS gradually ceases to elicit the CR
|
|
Salient
|
a stimulus is this when it is intense or easily detected by the individual
|
|
Simultaneous conditioning
|
the process in which the US and CS are presented at the same time in respondent conditioning trials
|
|
Spontaneous Recovery
|
(Respondent) the process in which, when a CR has been extinguished, the CR may occur at a later time when the CS is presented again
|
|
Trace Conditioning
|
a type of respondent conditioning in which the CS is presented and then the US is presented after the termination of the CS
|
|
unconditioned response
|
the response that is elicited by an unconditioned stimulus
|
|
unconditioned stimulus
|
a stimulus that naturally elicits an unconditioned response because the UR has survival value. No prior conditioning is needed for the US to elicit the UR
