Who is Ivan Pavlov?
A physiologist studying digestion.
Reflexes that are hereditary, permanent and occur in all members of a species.Food causes salivation.
Unconditional reflexes
Reflexes that are aquired and can be lost through experience, vary across members of species and are temporary. Sound causes salivation
Conditioned reflexes
The response elicited by an unconditional stimulus
Unconditional response
The stimulus that elicits an unconditional response
Unconditional stimulus
The response part of a conditional reflex, the response elicited by a conditional stimulus
Conditional response
The stimulus part of a conditional reflex, the stimulus that elicits a conditional response
Conditional stimulus
A variation of Pavlovian conditioning in which a stimulus is paired, not with a US, but with a well-established CS
Higher-order conditioning
In Pavlovian conditioning, the procedure of presenting the CS on some occasions without the US to determine whether learning has occurred
Test trials
The tendency of a neutral stimulus to elicit a CR when presented after a US has elicited a reflex response. Due to sensitization
Pseudoconditioning
A Pavlovian conditioning procedure in which the CS begins and ends before the US is presented
Trace conditioning
A Pavlovian conditioning procedure in which the CS starts before, and then overlaps with, the US
Delayed conditioning
A Pavlovian conditioning procedure in which the CS and US occur together in time
Simultaneous conditioning
A Pavlovian conditioning procedure in which the US precedes the CS
Backward conditioning
A dependency between events. An event may be dependent on the appearance of a stimulus or dependent on the appearance of a behavior
Contigency
Nearness of events in time or space
Contiguity
The interval between the CS and US, a measure of contiguity in Pavlovian conditioning
Unterstimulus interval (ISI)
Failure of a stimulus that is part of a compound stimulus to become a CS.
Overshadowing
Failure of a stimulus to become a CS, when it is part or a compound stimulus that inculdes an effective CS
Blocking
In Pavlovian conditioning, the failure of a CR to appear as a result of prior presentation of the CS in the absence of the US
Latent inhibition
A procedure in which two neutral stimuli are paired, after which one is repeatedly paired with a US. If the other stimulus is then presented alone, it may elicit a CR even though it was never paired with the US
Sensory preconditioning
In Pavlovian conditioning, the procedure of repeatedly presenting a CS without the US
Extinction
The sudden reappearance of a behavior following its extinction
Spontaneous recovery
In Pavlovian conditioning, the theory that the CS substitutes for the US. Assumes that the CR is essentially the same as the UR.
Stimulus-substitution theory
A theory of Pavlovian conditioning based on the assumption that the amount of learning that can occur on a particular trial is limited by the nature of the CS and US and the amount of learning that has already occurred.
Rescorla-Wagner Model
An emotional response to a stimulus that is aquired through Pavlovian conditioning
Conditioned emotional response
The use of Pavlovian conditioning to reverse the unwanted effects of prior conditioning
Counterconditioning
Any of several forms of counterconditioning in which a person is gradually exposed to a feared stimulus
Exposure Therapy
A procedure for treating pho-bias in which a person imagines preogressivelu stranger forms of the frightening CS while relaxed. It is a form of counterconditioning
Systematic desensitization
A form of counterconditioning in which a CS is paired with an aversive US, often nausea-inducing drugs
Aversion therapy
An aversion, acquired through Pavlovian conditioning, to foods with a particular flavor
Conditioned taste aversion
