1
New cards
Opponent/b process
serves to counteract primary process and maintain homeostasis.
2
New cards
emotional event
The repeated presentations of a(n) ________ diminishes primary process response and increases strength of b process.
3
New cards
Suppression ratio
(number of responses emitted during cs period)/ (number of cs responses and number of pre- cs responses)
4
New cards
Reflex
automatic response to a stimulus.
5
New cards
Classical conditioning
stimulus elicits response because it is associated w another stimulus.
6
New cards
Excitatory conditioning
ns associated with presentation of us.
7
New cards
Reflex arc
neural structure underlying some reflexes.
8
New cards
Temporal conditioning
ns /cs is the passage of time.
9
New cards
Inhibitory conditioning
ns associated with absence /removal of us.
10
New cards
Elicited / respondent behavior
behavior (involuntary) drawn out by preceding stimulus.
11
New cards
elicited / respondent behavior
behavior (involuntary) drawn out by preceding stimulus
12
New cards
reflex
automatic response to a stimulus
13
New cards
startle response
defensive response to unexpected stimulus
14
New cards
orienting response
body movement to position ourselves toward a stimulus
15
New cards
reflex arc
neural structure underlying some reflexes
16
New cards
sign stimulus / releaser
specific stimulus that elicits a fixed action pattern
17
New cards
primary / a process
directly elicited by the event
18
New cards
opponent / b process
serves to counteract primary process and maintain homeostasis
19
New cards
classical conditioning
stimulus elicits response because it is associated w another stimulus
20
New cards
conditioned stimulus (cs)
initially neutral, elicited response when paired w unconditioned stimulus
21
New cards
conditioned response
often similar to ur, elicited by cs
22
New cards
appetitive conditioning
seek out this stimulus
23
New cards
aversive conditioning
avoid this stimulus
24
New cards
suppression ratio
(number of responses emitted during cs period)/(number of cs responses and number of pre-cs responses)
25
New cards
excitatory conditioning
ns associated with presentation of us
26
New cards
inhibitory conditioning
ns associated with absence / removal of us
27
New cards
temporal conditioning
ns / cs is the passage of time
28
New cards
pseudoconditioning
elicited response that appears to be a cr but it actually the result of sensitization
29
New cards
startle response
defensive response to unexpected stimulus
30
New cards
orienting response
body movement to position ourselves toward a stimulus
31
New cards
fixed action patterns
instincts elicited by a specific stimulus (species-specific)
32
New cards
sign stimulus / releaser
specific stimulus that elicits a fixed action pattern
33
New cards
opponent-process theory of emotion
the repeated presentations of an emotional event diminishes primary process response and increases strength of b process
34
New cards
conditioned stimulus (cs)
initially neutral, elicited response when paired with unconditioned stimulus
35
New cards
conditioned response (cr)
often similar to ur, elicited by cs
36
New cards
appetitive conditioning
conditioning to seek out a stimulus
37
New cards
aversive conditioning
conditioning to avoid a stimulus
38
New cards
pseudoconditioning
elicited response that appears to be a cr but it actually is the result of sensitization
39
New cards
sensitization
increase in strength of elicited behavior following repeated presentations of eliciting stimulus
