|
Define Appetitive Conditioning |
Using a pleasant stimulus that the individual will seek out (food,treats) |
|
Define Aversive Conditioning. |
When a negative stimulus is used that the subject would avoid (electric shock/loud noise) |
|
What is excitatory conditioning? |
builds up the link between the NS and UR |
|
What is inhibitory conditioning? |
Supresses the association of the US |
|
What is extinction? |
The CR is weakened when CS is absent, link is broken but can be acquired quickly by re-pairing |
|
what is disinhibition? |
the response is recovered, during extinction, when a new stimuli is presented |
|
Define spontaneous recovery? |
Occurs after exntinction has occured and a rest period has been taken. The CR is recovered. |
|
High order conditioning? |
Another conditioning takes place after the first one (get stung by wasp, scared of wasp, see wasp by bin, scared of bin) |
|
Sensory pre conditioning |
original learning is not apparent until conditioning occurs (see a wasp by a tree= no fear, get stung by wasp= scared of wasp, see tree = scared of tree) |
|
latent learning |
learning occurs but is only evident under diff set of conditions |
|
What is Thorndikes law of efffect? |
trial and erorr, consequences of behaviour will determine if its repeated |
|
define reinforcer, punisher, negative and positive. |
increases behaviour, decreases behaviour, removes something, adds something. |
|
shaping |
taught how to carry out behaviour in a certain way/time under certain consequences |
|
chaining |
