Classical Conditioning

Front 1

Pavlov w.r.t. classical conditioning

Back 1

Dog experiment.
Before conditioning, food (unconditioned stimulus)--> salivation (unconditioned response); tone not --> salivation.
During cond. tone--> food--> salivation.
after cond. tone (cs)--> salivation (cr)-- new pairing.

Stages of Learning in classical conditioning

Back 2

acquisition
extinction
spontaneous recovery
generalization
discrimination

Front 3

Learning

Back 3

Relatively permanent change in behavior based on experience (e.g. change study strategy after a bad test)-- adapt to environment. 3 approaches: classical conditioning, operant conditioning, learning by observation.

Front 4

acquisition

Back 4

initially, it takes a while to develop an association. no sense of how you should respond. after repeated stimulus/exposure, you develop the association.

Front 5

extinction

Back 5

"unlearn" association-- e.g. with repeated bell but no food for a dog-- the association/response declines/disappears.
