Unconditioned Response
|
|
|
A relatively permanent change in behavior due to experience or knowledge.
|
Learning.
|
|
|
An approach to psychology that emphasizes the study of observable behavior and the role of the environment as a determinant of behavior.
|
Behaviorism.
|
|
|
A basic kind of learning that involves associations between environmental stimuli and the organism's responses.
|
Conditioning.
|
|
|
The classical-conditioning term for a stimulus that elicits a reflexive response in the absence of learning.
|
Unconditioned Stimulus (US).
|
|
|
The classical-conditioning term for a reflexive response elicited by a stimulus in the absence of learning.
|
Unconditioned Response (UR).
|
|
|
The classical-conditioning term for an initially neutral stimulus that comes to elicit a conditioned response after being associated with an unconditioned stimulus.
|
Conditioned Stimulus (CS).
|
|
|
The classical-conditioning term for a response that is elicited by a conditioned stimulus; it occurs after the conditioned stimulus is associated with an unconditioned stimulus.
|
Conditioned Response (CR).
|
|
|
The process by which a previously neutral stimulus acquires the capacity to elicit a response through association with a stimulus that already elicits a similar or related response.
|
Classical Conditioning.
|
|
|
The weakening and eventually disappearance of a learned response; in classical conditioning, it occurs when a CS is repeatedly not followed by a US.
|
Extinction.
|
|
|
The reappearance of a learned response after its apparent extinction.
|
Spontaneous Recovery
|
|
|
A procedure in which a neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus through association with an already established conditioned stimulus.
|
Higher-Order Conditioning.
|
|
|
The tendency to respond to stimuli that are similar. In classical conditioning, thew tendency for the CR to occur in the presence of stimuli that are similar to the CS.
|
Stimulus Generalization.
|
|
|
The tendency to respond differently to two or more similar stimuli; occurs when a stimulus similar to the CS fails to evoke the CR.
|
Stimulus Discrimination.
|
|
|
The process of pairing a conditioned stimulus with a stimulus that elicits a response that is incompatible with an unwanted conditioned response.
|
Counter-conditioning.
|
|
|
The process by which a response becomes more likely to occur or less so, depending on its consequences.
|
Operant conditioning.
