12 Week Exam Review Flashcards
Unlearned. Food.
UC (unconditioned)
Reflexive. Can’t control. Involuntary. CC-can’t control.
Classical conditioning
Saliva. Don’t teach yourself to salivate. Responses are typically the same whether they are conditioned or unconditioned.
UR (unconditioned response)
Is first neutral, then becomes conditioned because it gains meaning.
Bell
Operating on your surroundings
Operant
Type of sample that reflects a population
Representative sampling
Best reinforcement to make sure a behavior is resistant to extinction.
Variable ratio (With interval you don't know if it's the behavior that gets the result since it's overtime, but with ratio you do know)
Each side offering small conciliations. Type of problem solving.
GRIT
Graduated Reduction Tensions
Deals with traits
Inheritability
Relay for all senses
Thalamus
You agree to the experiment
Informed consent
Reinforcement quickly learned but also quickly extinguished. (Vending machine)
Fixed ratio
Behaviorist
Studies behavior
Social psych
How society and culture affect human behavior
What did Hubel and Wiesel discover in the occipital lobe? They help us see patterns.
Feature detectors
Humanistic psychology
Studies …
Neuron waiting to fire
Resting potential
is learned
CS (conditioned stimulus)
is unlearned
US (unconditioned stimulus)
Interpersonal relationships depend on…
Proximity and similarity
Freud
Unconscious drives
Little Albert dependent variable was…
His reaction
Changing your opinion based on someone’s facts
Informational conformity/social influence
Opened the college
Wilhelm Wundt
Most basic unit of nervous system
Neuron
Speech processing
Wernike’s Area. (Hard name to understand, so can’t pronounce it with speech)
Broca’s Area
Broken
Photo receptor cells in eye. Transduce energy into nerve energy
Rods and cones
Individual changes opinion to fit in with group
Conformity
Ind var
Can change
Molecules in the body that so closely mimic neurotransmitters that they open the same receptor sites on a dendrite
Antagonists
Receptor cells in the ear
Hair cells
Yay boo game was ex of this. Successively rewarding good behavior
Shaping
No, ok well how about something smaller. Car to bike. Sure!
Door in the face
After info is processed in the eye’s photo receptor cells, info is transferred to optic nerve via what
Via bipolar cells
Unlike Waterboy, this actually controls aggression
Amygdala
Controls the 4 F’s
Hypothalamus
The 4 F’s: feeding, f, fighting, fleeing
In Signal Detection Theory, saying a stimulus is there when it isn’t really is what
A false alarm
In the Asch experiment, conformity decreased when…
the decision was not unanimous
Reinforcers given right after a behavior occurs
Immediate reinforcers
Observational learning
Bandura
the ability to feel that you are able to accomplish tasks
Self-efficacy
How related two topics are
Correlation
Minimal amount of energy to tell receptor cells that info is present
Absolute threshold
We see stars because we stimulate the occipital lobe which operates under what doctrine?
Doctrine of specific nerve energies
To have the most generalized sample possible, it must be what
Generalized and random
Neurotransmitter that deals with movement
acetylcholine
Light entering eye
Pupil Lens Inverts image Retina Has receptor cells (rods and cones) Transduce Bipolar cells Ganglion cells (axons=optic nerve) Optic chiasm (images from each eye converge) Thalamus Occipital lobe Neural transmitters help us determine which image is which
Hearing
Ear canal Ear drum Bones Oval window cochlea Hair cells Transduce? Auditory nerve Thalamus Temporal lobe
all hair cells vibrate
Frequency theory
bounces
Volley principle
specific spots on membrane that respond to specific stimulus. Place are placed on vascular membrane
Place theory
