|
Definition
Conditioned stimuli and response Unconditioned stimuli and response |
|
|
Term
| Define unconditioned stimulus |
|
Definition
| Stimulus that automatically leads to an observable response prior to any training |
|
|
Term
| Define conditioned stimulus |
|
Definition
| Neutral stimulus that is paired w/the unconditioned stimulus during classical conditioning |
|
|
Term
| Define unconditioned response |
|
Definition
| Observable response that is produced automatically prior to training, on presentation of an unconditioned stimulus |
|
|
Term
| Define conditioned response |
|
Definition
| Acquired response that is produced by the conditioned stimulus in anticipation of the unconditioned stimulus |
|
|
Term
| Define operant conditioning |
|
Definition
| Procedure for studying how organisms learn about the consequences of their own voluntary actions |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| If a response in a particular situation is followed by a satisfying consequence, it will be strengthened; unsatisfying consequence, weakens it |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Response consequences that increase the likelihood of responding in a similar way again |
|
|
Term
| Define positive reinforcement |
|
Definition
| An event, presented after a response, that increases the likelihood of that response |
|
|
Term
| Define negative reinforcement |
|
Definition
| Event, when removed after a response, increases the likelihood of that response |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Consequences that decrease the likelihood of responding in a similar way again |
|
|
Term
| Define positive punishment |
|
Definition
| Event presented after a response that lowers the likelihood of that response occurring |
|
|
Term
| Define negative punishment |
|
Definition
| Event removed after a response that lowers the likelihood of that response occurring |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Schedule where the number of responses required for reinforcement is fixed and doesn't change |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Schedule where a certain number of responses are required for reinforcement, but the number typically changes |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Schedule where the reinforcement is delivered for the first response that occurs following a fixed interval of time |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Schedule where the allotted time before a response will yield reinforcement; varies from trial to trial |
