Ivan Pavlov’s experiments with dogs yield information about which of the following

classical conditioning

which of the following best describes a neutral stimulus

stimulus that doesnt cause a response

in what way does classical conditioning help animals and people

helps them adapt to their environment

which of the following describes the process by which a conditioned response is extinguished

conditioned stimulus is no longer followed by an unconditional stimulus

under what conditions can spontaneous recovery occur

when the conditioned stimulus starts again

which of the following refers to classical conditioning method that exposes an individual to a harmless stimulus until fear responses to that stimulus are extinguished

flooding

what is the process by which a stimulus increases the chances of a preceding behavior occurring again

reinforcement

what process is used in learning to ride a bicycle

chaining

people who watch a lot of violence on television are more likely to be violent in part because of

observational learning

looking at the diagram of pavlov’s dog: In the panel at the upper right-hand corner which of the following best describes the food

unconditioned stimulus

in the panel at the upper left-hand corner, which of the following best describes the tone

neutral stimulus

what type of conditioning pairs a pleasant stimulus with a fearful one in order to counteract the fear

counter conditioning

which of the following would be considered a secondary reinforcer

money

which of the following is a term for learning that remains hidden until needed

latent

explain the concepts of shaping and chaining

shaping- reinforcement guides behavior toward closer approximations of the desired goal

chaining- taking several behaviors and linking them together for a final behavior

a previously natural stimulus that, through learning, gains the power to cause a response

conditioned stimulus

money

secondary reinforcement

the response to the conditioned stimulus

conditioned response

an automatic response to an unconditioned stimulus (drool)

unconditioned response

food

primary reinforcement

a stimulus that triggers a response automatically (food)

unconditioned stimulus
