What are the three ways of learning ? |
Classical conditioning, Operant Conditioning , observational learning |
|
|
Unconditioned stimulus & response |
-something that triggers a natural occurring response -naturally occurring response to unconditioned stimulus |
|
|
Conditioned stimulus & response |
-neutral stimulus that after being repeatedly presented prior to unconditioned stim evokes similar response -aquired response to the formerly neutral stimulus |
|
|
Extinction |
Reduction of response when stimulus is conditioned |
|
|
Spontaneous recovery |
Increase in responding to conditioned stim after extinction |
|
|
Discrimination |
Similar stim but prefers one over the other |
|
|
Generalization |
Tendency to respond to stimuli that resemble the original conditioned stimulus |
|
|
Classical Conditioning |
Learning through experience |
|
|
Pavalos experiment |
Dogs with bell and food for salivation |
|
|
Operant conditioning |
Learning that occurs based on the consequences of behavior and can involve learning of new actions. |
|
|
Positive/ negative reinforcement |
Adding/ taking away something to strengthen response by presenting something pleasant or unpleasant after response. |
|
|
Positive / negative punishment |
-presenting something unpleasant after response -reducing or removing something pleasant |
|
|
Primary/ secondary reinforce |
-stimuli that are naturally proffered or enjoyed by organism -neutral event that has come associated with primary reinforcer using classical conditioning |
|
|
How can operante learning shape new behaviors ? |
Guiding organisms behavior to desired outcome |
|
|
Skinners experiment |
Skinners box using buttons for different outcomes |
|
|
Observational learning |
Learning by observing behavior of others |
|
|
Banduras experiment |
Aggression in children Play with toys then take them away and give them bobo doll. Watched aggressive video so they were aggressive with doll. |
|
|
Memory |
Ability to store and retrieve information over time |
|
|
3 Fundamental processes of memory |
Sensory memory, short tem memory, long term memory |
|
|
Effortful/ automatic processing |
-takes effort to process info -takes little to no effort to process info |
|
|
Implicit memory |
Influence of experience on behavior |
|
|
Explicit memory |
Knowledge or experience that can consciously be remembered. |
|
|
How can memory be improved ? |
Chuncking, mnemonics, hierarchies, distributed practice, meaningful material. |
|
|
Long term potentiation |
Long lasting strengthinging of synapses between nerve cells. |
|
|
How to retrieval cues influence our memory/ recall |
Using past memories or experience in LTM to help us remember STM to LTM |
|
|
Priming |
Changes in behavior from experience that happen frequently / recently |
