21
Q

What are the ABC’s of learning

A

Behaviors

22
Q

What was the idea of classical conditioning by Ivan Pavlov

A

Stimulus elicits a response

23
Q

Elicits an unconditioned response natural thing that occurs unlearned

A

Unconditioned stimulus

24
Parent with an unconditioned stimulus elicits an unconditioned response it is while you are learning behavior
Neutral stimulus
25
Elicits a condition response it is what you have learned
Conditioned stimulus
26
When the NS and UCS are presented at the same time
Simultaneous
27
NS is presented then a delay then the UCS is presented than the NS is removed
Delayed
28
When the NS precedes the UCS
Trace
29
When the UCS is presented and then NS
Backward
30
View that learning occurs when stimulus provide information about the likelihood of the occurrence of other stimuli
Contingency theory
31
Stimulus lose ability to evoke learn responses because the events that had followed the stimulus no longer occur
Extinction
32
The reoccurrence of an extinguished response as a function of the passage of time
Spontaneous recovery
33
Procedure in which he previously neutral stimulus comes to elicit the response brought forth by conditioned stimulus
Higher order conditioning
34
The physiological and psychological reaction to an expected danger whether real or imagined
Anxiety
35
Period Of extreme anxiety and physical symptoms often reported to feel like a heart attack
Panic attack
36
An intense fear of a specific object or situation fear must significantly restrict our way of life
Phobia
37
Treatment technique where the client is exposed to gradually increasing anxiety provoking stimuli while relaxing
Systematic desensitization
38
Treatment involving the combination of behaviorism and cognitive therapy change the mindset and thought processes
Cognitive behavioral therapy
39
What did Thorndyke formalize
The law of effect
40
First correct response after a set amount of time has passed is reinforced the time period Required is always the same
Fixed interval
41
Monkey see monkey do
Modeling
42
Get away with or are rewarded for violence
Disinhibition
43
