associatve learning/conditioning
|
one event becomes linked with another because of an individual's past experience
|
|
observation/modeling
|
individual observes another's behavior and its consequences
|
|
classical conditioning
|
pavlov
type of learning in which a neutral event, or stimulus, is able to elicit a response originally elicited by another stimulus |
|
components
|
unconditioned stimulus
unconditioned response conditioned stimulus conditioned response |
|
acquisition
|
whenever an organism has learned a response
|
|
delay conditioning
|
CS
UCS |
|
trace conditioning
|
CS
UCS |
|
simultaneous conditioning
|
CS
UCS |
|
backward conditioning
|
CS
UCS |
|
extinction
|
when the organism stops responding or decreases a response to the CS
|
|
spontaneous recovery
|
a learned response that has been extinguished reappears if the conditioned stimulus is presented after a passing of time
|
|
stimulus generalization
|
occurs when a learned response is made to stimuli that are similar to the conditioned stimulus
LITTLE ALBERT Watson and Raynor |
|
stimulus discrimination
|
occurs when one conditioned stimulus continues to be paired with the UCS, but the other stimulus is not
more likely when other stimuli are very different from the original CS |
|
overshadowing
|
the more intense stimuli will overshadow the less intense stimuli
|
|
higher-order conditioning
|
a conditioned stimulus becomes an unconditioned stimulus for another neutral stimulus
|
|
operant conditioning
|
which the probability that an organism will emit a response is based on the consequences of that response
Thorndike and skinner |
|
law of effect
|
behavior followed by a pleasant consequence increases- whereas the occurrence of behavior followed by an unpleasant consequence decreases
|
|
reinforcement
|
a consequence following a response that increases the tendency of an organism to make that response
|
|
primary reinforcer
|
biological need
no prior learning |
|
conditioned reinforcer
|
depends on prior learning
|
|
positive reinforcement
|
pleasent consequences follow a desired behavior, and the tendency of an organism to repeat the behavior increases
|
|
negative reinforcement
|
aversive, unpleasant, events are taken away after performance of a desired behavior increases
|
|
escape learning
|
the organism learns a response that decreases or ends unpleasant situations
|
|
avoidance learning
|
organism learns a response to prevent unpleasant consequences from occurring
|
|
continuous schedule
|
reinforced after every desired response
|
|
partial/intermittent schedule
|
reinforced some of the time
|
|
ratio
|
reinforcement after a number of responses
|
|
interval
|
reinforcement after an amount of time has passed
|
|
fixed
|
reinforcement after a specific, set number of responses(ratio) or set amount of time (interval)
|
|
variable schedule
|
reinforcement after an average, or variable number of responses(ratio) or time (interval)
|
|
fixed-ratio schedule
|
a set amount of time
|
|
variable-interval
|
average, or variable, amount of time
|
|
concurrent schedule
|
2+ behaviors are reinforced
|
|
matching law
|
relative number of reinforcements for making that response
|
|
punishment by application
|
administering aversive consequences when an undesirable response is made
|
|
punishment by withdrawal
|
taking away pleasant circumstances when an undesirable response is made
|
|
discriminative stimuli
|
reinforcement if a certain response is made
|
|
contiguity
|
timing of an association is the necessary and sufficient component to learning
|
|
contingency
|
uncover expectancies or rules about what leads to classical for what follows a response
|
|
observational learning
|
a new behavior after watching others perform
-attention-focus on that behavior -retention-memorization -reproduction-mimicking -motivation-information useful |
