Learning
|
change in behavior attributed to experience
|
|
Reinforcement
|
event that increases probability that particular response will occur
|
|
o Response
|
identifiable behavior
|
|
o Antecedents
|
events before a response
|
|
o Consequences
|
effects that follow a response
|
|
o Reflex
|
innate and automatic response to stimulus. ex.- eye blink
|
|
o Classical conditioning
|
form of learning where reflexes are associated with new stimuli
|
|
o Operant Conditioning
|
learning based on consequences of responding
|
|
o Neutral stimulus
|
stimulus that doesn’t evoke response
|
|
o Unconditioned Stimulus
|
Stimulus innately incapable of eliciting a response
|
|
o Conditioned Stimulus
|
stimulus that evokes a response because it has been repeatedly paired with an unconditioned stimulus
|
|
o Unconditioned Response
|
innate reflex elicited by unconditional stimulus
|
|
o Conditioned Response
|
learned response elicited by conditioned stimulus
|
|
o Acquisition
|
the period in conditioning when a response is reinforced
|
|
o Respondent reinforcement
|
reinforcement when an unconditioned stimulus closely follows conditioned stimulus
|
|
o Higher order conditioning
|
classical conditioning where conditioned stimulus is used to reinforce further learning
|
|
o Informational view
|
perspective that explains learning through information passed on by events in the environment
|
|
o Expectancy
|
anticipation about future events/relationships
|
|
o Extinction
|
weakening of conditioned response through removal of reinforcement
|
|
o Spontaneous recovery
|
reappearance of learned stimulus after its apparent extinction
|
|
o Stimulus generalization
|
tendency to respond to stimuli similar to conditioned stimuli
|
|
o Stimulus Discrimination
|
learned ability to respond differently to similar stimuli
|
|
o Phobia
|
intense and unrealistic fear of some specific object or situation
|
|
Conditioned emotional response
|
emotional response linked to stimulus by classical conditioning
|
|
Desensitization
|
reducing fear/anxiety by repeatedly exposing a person to emotional stimuli while the person is relaxed
|
|
Vicarious classical conditioning
|
classical conditioning brought about by observing another person react to particular stimulus
|
|
Respondent reinforcement
|
reinforcement when an unconditioned stimulus closely follows conditioned stimulus
