Antecedent/Discriminative stimulus, Behaviour, Consequence
ELEMENTS of Classical Conditioning
Neutral stimulus, Unconditioned stimulus, Unconditioned response, Conditioned Stimulus, Conditioned Response
Antecedent (Discriminative Stimulus)
a stimulus that prompts/precedes a voluntary behaviour
Attention
the first stage of observational learning. Learners must actively focus on the model in order to learn
Behaviour
a voluntary action in response to an antecedent
Classical conditioning
a model of learning in which organisms learn through the involuntary association of two or more stimuli
Conditioned emotional responses
an emotional response to a stimulus that doesn?t naturally produce that response, learned through the process of classical conditioning
Conditioned response (CR)
a response caused by the conditioned stimulus
Conditioned stimulus (CS)
a stimulus that elicits a response due to its being paired with an unconditioned stimulus
Consequence
an event following an action that makes it either more or less likely to occur again
Model
the individual who is performing the behaviour that is being watched/ observed
Motivation
the fourth stage of observational learning. The learner must want to reproduce the behaviour in order for learning to occur
Negative reinforcement
when a stimulus is removed in order to encourage a behaviour to occur again
Neutral stimulus (NS)
a stimulus that does not initially elicit a response
Observational learning
(also known as social learning, vicarious conditioning, or modelling) a type of learning that occurs through watching the actions of a model and the consequences that their actions receive
Operant conditioning
learning through the association of a behaviour and the consequence it receives
Positive punishment
when a stimulus is added in order to discourage a behaviour from occurring again
Positive reinforcement
when a stimulus is added in order to encourage a behaviour to occur again
