classical conditioning
classical conditioning→Learning to respond to a new stimulus that has been associated with another stimulus that normally produces the response
how did pavlov study classical conditioning→Pavlov studied classical conditioning by pairing a neutral stimulus (bell) with an unconditioned stimulus (food) to elicit a conditioned response (salivation) in dogs.
what is the unconditioned response in pavlovs example→Salivation in response to food.
what is the unconditoned stimulus in pavlovs example→The unconditioned stimulus is the food.
what is the conditioned response in pavlovs example→Salivation in response to the bell.
what is the conditioned stimulus in pavlovs example→The conditioned stimulus is the bell.
acquisition→Stage of conditioning in which the association between the 2 stimuli (US and CS) is being learned
generalization→Conditioned response to stimuli that are not the conditioned stimulus (but are similar to the CS)
discrimination→Conditioned response occurs only to a specific stimulus
extinction→Failure to exhibit the CR to the CS (because the CS no longer predicts the US)
spontaneous recovery→Reappearance of the CR to the original CS after extinction
second order (higher order) conditioning→New neutral stimulus becomes associated with previously conditioned stimulus - becomes new CS‒tends to be weaker than first-order conditioning
conditioned aversion→Classically conditioned association between a CS and a US that causes unpleasant response
example of conditoned aversion with wolves and coyotes→A wolf or coyote might develop a conditioned aversion to a particular food after eating it and becoming sick.
what was watson and raynors study with little albert→It was a study that demonstrated that fear could be conditioned in humans.
counterconditioning→Replacing unwanted CR with wanted response
