_______ is typically defined as a relatively enduring change in behavior that is a product of experience.
Definition
Term
Traditionally learning involves the effects of various stimuli (environmental events), this idea is credited to ______, who first began studying learning and wanted to focus only on observable events.
Definition
Term
More recent explanations of learning also take into account _______ factors, including expectations and the ability to represent events mentally.
Definition
Term
There are 2 types of learning:___________ and

non-___________

Definition
Associative

Non-Associative

Term
There are 3 distinct procedures for associative learning1._______2.________

3._________

Definition
1. Classical Conditioning2. Operant Conditioning

3. Observational Conditioning

Term
Non-Associative Learning occurs when the repeated presentation of a _______ stimulus produces an enduring change in behavior.
Definition
Term
In cases of _________, repeated presentations of a stimulus eventually reduce responses to that stimulus
Definition
Term
_______ occurs when the repeated or longer lasting presentation of an intense stimulus increases the response to a weaker stimulus.
Definition
Term
_______ learning involves the learning of a connection either between 2 stimuli (as in classical conditioning) or between a response and a stimulus (as in operant conditioning)
Definition
Term
_________ Conditioning produces changes in responding by pairing 2 stimuli together. (ring bell and smell of meat)
Definition
Classical Conditioning (aka Pavlovian Conditioning)
Term
One of the stimuli in Classical Conditioning called the _______ Stimulus (smell of meat) already produces the response of interest is called _______ Response. ( dogs salivate)
Definition
Unconditioned Stimulus ( US )

Unconditioned Response ( UR )

Term
By repeated presenting the smell of meat to a dog after first presenting another stimulus, the _______ stimulus (one that does not normally make the unconditioned response, a bell), the ______ stimulus becomes capable of producing the response.
Definition
Term
After being conditioned with a neutral stimulus, it is now called the ______ stimulus and now produces a______ response.
Definition
Conditioned Stimulus

Conditioned Response

Term
If the conditioned stimulant is repeatedly given without the unconditioned stimulant, the conditioned response goes away.

This is called _________.

Definition
Term
__________ Conditioning involves learning an association between a stimulus and a response that follows it. Learning this association will either increase or decrease the frequency of the response.
Definition
Term
_________ always involves an increase in the target behavior The words positive and negative refer to what's happening with a stimulus. either it shows up (positive) or taken away (negative)
Definition
Term
_______ reinforcement involves presenting a stimulus
Definition
Term
___________ reinforcement involves removing a stimulus
Definition
Term
__________ always involves a decrease in the target behavior.
Definition
Term
The way in which a consequence is doled out and rules for determining when reinforcement is given is called _____ schedules.
Definition
Term
How many times a response has been made is called a______ schedule
Definition
Term
Amount of time since the last reinforcement is called an _____ schedule
Definition
Term
On a ____ schedule, a rat receives a food pellet every 6th press of a lever
Definition
Term
on a ______ sched, the amount of time between getting a reinforcement and the next one coming available keeps changing
Definition
Term
as with classical conditioning, ____ happens for operant conditioning when a stimulus that used to show up predictably doesn't appear anymore
Definition
Term
after extinction, the learned behavior returns to ______ and does not disappear
Definition
BASELINE LEVEL
(the freq w/ which it happened prior to conditioning)
Term
_______ learning is he idea that we can learn operant behavior indirectly from watching others from people called _____
Definition
observational learning
