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
|
