How do we define learning

Any relative permanent change in behavior brought about by Experience or practice.

Operant conditioning

A method of learning that occurs through rewards and punishments for behavior. ( Skinner, 1938 )

Shaping

Reinforcement of simple steps in behavior that leads to a desired more complex behavior.

2 Types of Reinforcement

Primary & Secondary

Primary reinforcement

Hunger and thirst

Secondary reinforcement

Praise and tokens

Modeling/observational learning

Is a behavioral base seizure that involves the use of why was symbolic models demonstrate a particular behavior, thought, will add to that a client may want to acquire or change.

2 types of punishment ( Operant Conditioning )

Negative punishment & Positive punishment.

Extinction ( Operant Conditioning )

Is the disappearance of a previously learned behavior when the behavior is not reinforced. ( This behavior can occur in all types of behavior condition.)

Primary reinforcement

Any reinforcement that is naturally reinforcing my meeting a basic biological needs such as hunger and thirst or touch.

Secondary reinforcers

Any reinforcement that becomes reinforcing after being paired with a primary reinforcer such as praisetokens of gold stars.

4 Main Reinforcement schedule

4 Main Reinforcement schedule

Specific learning disabilities

Dyslexia ,ADD, ADHD, Dyscalculua not understanding signs and

Key components of classical conditioning

UnConditional stimulus - Any condition that evoke a response without going through any previous learning occurs naturally.

-

Neutral stimulus- initial produces no specific response other than focusing attention.

Condition stimulus- I have to become an associate it with unconditioned stimulus eventually becomes a trigger a conditioned response.

Unconditioned response a class of a condition as I learned that occurs naturally in reaction to an unconditioned stimulus.

Conditioned response I know automatic response establish my training to an ordinary neutral stimulus.

What is The audible range for humans

12 to 14 kHz

The gustation and olfaction

Gusation detects taste and olfaction detects odor.

5 Main elements of Language j

Grammar-structure Of language

Syntax-Set of rules and principles

Semantics-Is the study of meaning in language

Phonemes-Is one unit of sale that is distinguished one more from another in particular

Theory in 1965 say that you have to look at 16 personality traits known as 16PF.Based on three dimensions introversion versus extroversion, neuroticisms versus stability, psychoticism versus socialization

Robert Sternberg Theory

Three types practical intelligence, creative intelligence and analytical intelligence.

Defining validity and reliability

Reliability refers to the extent to which assessments are consistent.

ValidityRefers to whether in the study or measuring test is measuring what is claims to measure.

Reliability and validity

These two concepts are important for defining and measuring bias and distortion.
