Acquisition
|
Repeated associations lead to conditioning over time that increases the probability that a conditioned stimulus (CS) will illicit a conditioned response (CR)
|
|
|
Habituation
|
A decline in response to stimuli that have become familiar through repeated exposure
|
|
|
Extinction
|
Trials in which the CS is presented without the US
|
|
|
Classical Conditioning (Pavlovian or passive)
|
Includes stimulus associations to reflexive responses
|
|
|
Instrumental Conditioning (Operant)
|
Includes stimulus associations to volitional/intentional responses. Includes reward system or reinforcers (positive or negative)
|
|
|
Punishment (Averse Learning)
|
Most associated with taste aversion (Garcia Effect) that relates to rats and lithium chloride. Form of Pavlovian conditioning.

Law that states that performance is strengthened if it’s followed by a reward and weakened if it’s not
|
|
|
Generalization
|
CR that is stimulated by a stimulus that is similar to the original CS
|

|
Fixed Ratio Schedule
|
Schedules deliver reinforcement after a certain number of responses. High rates of behavior. (Commission or wages based on output)
|
|
|
Fixed Interval Schedule
|
Schedules deliver reinforcement after a certain time lapse
|
|
|
Variable Ratio Schedule
|
A reinforcement schedule in which the number of responses necessary to produce reinforcement varies from trial to trial. Steady rates (Slot machine that gives reward after a certain amount of pulls)
|
|
|
Variable Interval Schedule
|
A schedule of reinforcement on an average amount of time. (Slot machine gives reward after an average amount of time)
|
|
|
Progressive Ratio
|
Schedule where number of responses increase until a certain breaking point
