|
causal interference
|
judgment or conclusion that one event influences, affects, or causes another
|
|
|
inference
|
psychological process by which individuals make judgments and draw conclusions based on the information available to them
|
|
|
temporal precedence
|
a. the order of events
b. in Pavlovian conditioning this usually refers to the CS occurring before the US |
|
|
temporal contiguity
|
events that occur close together in time
|
|
|
spacial contiguity
|
events that occur close together in space
|
|
|
necessary condition
|
something in whose absence the effect cannot occur
|
|
|
sufficient condition
|
something in whose presence the effect must occur
|
|
|
simultaneous conditioning
|
a. when the CS and the US occur at the same time
b. the Pavlovian conditioning procedure in which the CS and the US completely overlap |
|
|
backwards conditioning
|
when the US precedes the CS
|
|
|
CS-US consistency
|
a. how often the CS and the US occur in relationship to each other
b. the US follows the CS and the less often the US occurs in the absence of the CS the greater the CS-US consistency |
|
|
CS-US contingency
|
the rule that specifies how likely the US will follow the CS and how likely the US will appear in the absence of the CS
|
|
|
positive contingency
|
a. the occurrence of the CS gives the individual information about the occurrence of the US
b. the US is more likely to occur when a CS has occurred than when a CS has not occurred |
|
|
negative contingency
|
a. negative correlation between the CS and the US
b. the occurrence of the CS predicts the absence of the US and the absence of the CS predicts the occurrence of the US c. the US is more likely to occur when the CS has not occurred than when it has occurred |
|
|
zero contingency
|
a. the probability of the US occurring following the CS is equal to the probability of the US occurring following the absence of the CS
b. no relationship between the occurrence of the CS and the occurrence of the US |
|
|
excitatory conditioning
|
leads to the occurrence of conditioned responses
