Learning
|
a change in behavior due to experience
|
|
Three types of learning
|
1. Classical conditioning
2. Operant conditioning 3. Observational learning |
|
Classical Conditioning
|
• Relies on association between two stimuli
• Applies mostly to simple, reflexive behavior and basic emotional reactions ○ Ex: salivation, startle ○ Gut reactions, or knee jerk responses |
|
Neutral
|
anything that does not stimulate a response
|
|
how does classical conditioning work?
|
an unconditioned stimulus that draws an unconditioned response is paired with a neutral thing
the neutral thing eventually becomes a conditioned stimulus and produces a conditioned response without the presence of the unconditioned stimuli |
|
conditioned response is ___________ as unconditioned stimulus
|
not as strong
|
|
Operant Conditioning
|
• Relies on an association between a response and a consequence
• Applies to complex, voluntary behaviors • Behavior is affected by its consequences ○ Thorndike's puzzle box • Law of effect - consequences affect behavior |
|
Reinforcement
|
using either negative or positive reinforcement to encourage a behavior
-consequence strengthens response |
|
Punishment
|
doing something negative to decrease a behavior
|
|
positive reinforcement
|
Adding something positive to reinforce a behavior
|
|
negative reinforcement
|
taking a negative stimulus away to increase a behavior
