-
Define Reflex (Respondent)
an unconditioned or conditioned reflex in sense of a response elicited by a particular stimulus
-
Define Unconditioned Reflex
the action the unconditioned stimuli elicits
-
Define Unconditioned Stimulus
an even that automatically elicits and unconditioned response
-
Define Neutral Stimulus
something that does not trigger an effect on the response you are searching for
-
Define Conditioned Stimulus
response that depends on preceding conditions
-
Define Conditioned Response
whatever response the conditioned stimulus elicits as a result of a conditioning procedure
-
Define Classical Conditioning
the process by which an organism learns a new association between to stimuli
-
Acquisition and Extinction
Acquisition is the process that establishes and strengthens the conditioned response while extinction extinguished a classically conditioned response (Repeatedly presenting the conditioned stimulus without the unconditioned stimulus until the conditioned response is extinguished)
-
Define Spontaneous Recovery
- A temporary return of an extinguished response (conditioned stimulus) after a
- delay
-
Generalization of a Conditioned Reflex
That is when you learn to react to something that has a similar look, taste, touch, or feel. Like associating bee and wasp if you have ever been stung by one.
-
Define Operant Behavior
the process of changing behavior by providing a reinforcement for a response (in operant behavior the subject does something that affects the future, in classical conditioning, the subjects behavior has no effect on the outcome of either the CS or UCS)
-
Define Respondent Behavior
A new stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus evoking a conditioned response
-
Define Positive Reinforcement
a response, leads to a reward presented and that causes an increase in response
-
Define Negative Reinforcement
a response, leads to a punishment and that cause a decrease in response
-
Define Positive Punishment
when rewarding someone leads to a decrease in action
-
Define Negative Punishment
when removing something leads to a decrease in action
-
Describe Acquisition, Extinction, and Spontaneous Recovery applied to opperant behavior
- Acquisition - stimulus is constantly reinforced
- Extinction - responses stop producing reinforcements, response without reinforcement
- Spontaneous
- Recovery - randomly the subject does the action again even if there is no response given
-
Difference between Primary and Secondary Reinforcer
- Primary - an unconditional reinforcer that is reinforcing because of their own properties
- Secondary - an unconditional reinforcer that is reinforcing because of their own properties
-
Define Reinforcement
reinforcement for some responses and not for others
-
Define Discrimination
if reinforcement occurs for responding to one stimulus and not another
-
Define Discrimination Stimulus
a stimulus that indicates which response is appropriate and which response is inappropriate
-
Define Stimulus Control
the ability of stimulus to encourage some responses and discourage others
