elicited behaviors
reflexes
fixed action patterns
fixed sequence of responses elicited by a specific stimulus
sign stimulus
specific stimulus that sets action pattern in motion
Habituation
decrease in strength of an elicited behavior following repeated presentations of the eliciting stimulus, stimulus specific, i.Caused by low-intensity stimuli or currently irrelevant stimuli
dishabituation
responses reappear following the presentation of a seemingly irrelevant novel stimulus
Sensitization
increase in the stength of an elicited behavior following repeated presentations of the eliciting stimulus, often generalizes, caused by high-intensity stimuli or currently relevant
Opponent-Process Theory of Emotion
causes a primary response to event, then causes a response to the primary response to maintain homeostatis
excitatory Conditioning
conditioning where the NS is associated with the presence of a US
inhibitory conditioning
conditioning where the NS is associated with the absence of a US
introverts
highly reactive to external stimuli, condition easily, and develop anxiety-type symptoms
extroverts
less reactive to external stimulation, condition less easily and develop physical-type symptoms to stress
overshadowing
the most salient member of a compound stimulus is more readily conditioned as a CS and interferes with the conditioning of a less salient stimulus
blocking
the presence of an established CS interferes with conditioning of a new CS
latent inhibition
a familiar stimulus is more difficult to condition than an unfamiliar (novel) one.
External Inhibition
The presentation of a novel stimulus at the same time as the conditioned stimulus produced a decrease in the strength of the conditioned response.
S-R Model (stimulus-response)
the neutral stimulus becomes directly associated with the unconditioned response and therefore comes to elicit the same response as the UR.
S-S Model (stimulus-stimulus)
the NS becomes directly associated with the US and because of this association comes to elicit a response that is related to the US.
Stimulus-Substitution Theory
the CS acts as a substitute for the US
Preparatory-response theory:
the purpose of the CR is to prepare the organism for the presentation of the US.
I.Compensatory-Response Model
1.a CS that has been repeatedly associated with the primary response (a-process) to a US will eventually come to elicit a compensatory response (b-process)
