-
what are the four classical conditioning techiniques?
Unconditioned sensation, considitioned sensetation, unconditioned response, conditioned response
-
what is classical conditioning?
aquiring a new response to a previouisly neutral stimulus that realbly signals the arrival of unconditioned stimulus
-
what is extinction process?
the diminishing of the conditioned response when the unconditioned stimulus no longer follows the conditioned stimulus. The conditioned response my not be totaly lost during extinction
-
what is operant conditioning?
learning to associate behaviors with their consenquences. Behaviors the are reinforced will be strengthened and behabiors that are puniched will be weakened
-
what is shaping?
training a human or animal to make an operant response by reinforcing successive approximation of desired response.
-
what is motivation?
set of internal and external factors that energise our behavior and direct it toward goals.
-
what is the drive reduction theory?
theory of motivation that our behavior is motivated to reduce drives created by unsatisfyed bodily needs to return the body too balanced internal state
-
what is arousal theory?
theory of motivation proposes behaviors motivated to aintain an optimal level of physiological arousal
-
what is extrinsic motivation?
the desire to perform a behavior for external reinforcement
-
what is inbrassic motivation?
desire to perform a behavior for our own sake
-
what is the overjustification effect?>
decrease in intrinsically motivated behavior after the behavior is extrinsically reinforced and then reinforcement discontinued
-
what is discrimitative stimulus?
stimulus that has to be present for the operant response to be reinforced or punished
-
what is stimulus discimination
learning to give the operant response only in presence of the disriminative stimuli
-
what is a reinforcer?
stimulus that increases the probability of a prior response
-
what is a punisher?
stimulus that decreases the probability of prior response
-
what is reinforcement
process by which the probability of a response is increased by the presentations of a reinforcer following the response
-
what is punishement?
process by which the probability of a response is decreased by the presentation of a punisher following the response.
-
what is appetitive stimulus?
stimulus that the animal or huan find pleasant
-
what is abbresive stimulus?
stimulus find unpleasent
-
what are the 5 processes in operant conditioning?
acquisition, ixtiction, spontaneous recovery, generelazication and discrimination
-
what is acqusition?
refers to the strenghtening of the reinforced operant response
-
what is sponteneous recovery?
temporary recovery of the operant response following a break during extinciton training
-
what is observational learning?
learning by observing others and imitating their behavior
