learning
almost permanent change in behavior due to experience
associative learning
learning that certain events occur together.
behaviorism
the view that psychology
should be an objective science--correct
study behavior and not mental processes
classical conditioning
type of learning in which organism associates stimuli
UCS->UCR
nuetral+UCS->UCR
CS->CR
unconditioned response
unlearned response to UCS (salivate when food is seen)
unconditioned stimulus
naturally triggers response
food triggers salivation
conditioned response
learned response to nuetral stimulus
conditioned stimulus
previously neutral stimulus that now makes a response
acquisition
initial learning
classical conditioning- learn neutral stimulus makes response
operant - strengthen reinforced response
extinction
diminishing of conditioned response
spontaneous recovery
reappearnance of response
generalization
similar stimulus does same response
discrimination
ability to tell the difference between stimuli
operant conditioning
behavior strengthened by reinforcement or diminished by punishment
respondent behavior
automatic response for stimulus- salivating for food-skinner's term
operant behavior
behavior that operated on the environment
law of effect
behavior followed by favorable consequences- happen more likely
behavior followed by unfavorable consequences- happen less likely
operant chamber
animal can manipulate bar to get food
shaping
reinforcers guide behavior closer and closer to goal
reinforcer
strengthens behavior
primary reinforcer
type of reinforcer
innately reinforces stimulus, like food
conditioned reinforcer
type of reinforcer
reinforce through association
money
continuous reinforcement
reinforce response 100% of the time
partial reinforcement
reinforce part of the time
fixed-ratio schedule
reinforces specific number of times
variable-ratio schedule
reinforce random number of times
fixed-interval schedule
reinforce in specific amount of time
variable-interval schedule
reinforces in random amount of time
punishment
decreases behavior that it follows
cognitive map
mental representation of layout of environment
after seeing maze, rats go through it faster
latent learning
learning that occurs but is not apparent until there is an incentive to demonstrate it
like cognitive map
overjustification effect
giving reward for what you like to do, makes you not want to do it
observational learning
learning by observing others
modeling
process of observing and imitating specific behavior
prosocial behavior
positive, constructive, helpful behavior
