16
Q

provide an example of an unconditioned response

A

US: blast of air in face
UR: blink

17
Q

in ___________, the neutral stimulus (NS) occurs at exactly the same time as the US

in ___________, the US precedes the NS

A

simultaneous conditioning

backwards conditioning

18
Q

what does CER stand for

A

conditioned emotional response

eg. little albert

19
Q

after respondent extinction, the _________ will no longer occur when the CS is presented

A

CR

20
Q

someone shoots a pistol. the loud noise elicits a startle reflex (autonomic arousal). later, when the person raises the pistol but doesn’t shoot, you have a similar startle response.

identify the US, UR, CS, CR

A

US: loud noise
UR: startle response

CS: raising pistol
CR: startle response

21
Q

identify the five factors that influence respondent conditioning

A
  1. the nature of the NS and US
    - intensity influences effectiveness
    - a more intense stimulus is more salient (noticeable)
  2. the temporal relationship btwen the NS and US
    - NS preceding US = more effective (trace conditioning)
    - short intervals
  3. contingency btwn the NS and US
  4. the # of pairings
    - more pairings produce stronger conditioning
  5. previous exposure to the NS
    - NS less likely to become CS if person has been exposed to it many times in the past (w/o the US)
22
Q

operant Bx’s are controlled/(_________) by ______________

respondent Bx’s are controlled/(__________) by ______________

A

controlled/evoked
consequences (+ antecedents)

controlled/elicited
antecedents

23
Q

as a result of respondent conditioning a CS elicits a(n) _____________

A

CR

24
Q

___________ the NS precedes the US

___________ the NS occurs before the US and overlaps with the US

A

trace conditioning

delay conditioning

25
Q

after respondent extinction has occurred, the CS elicits a CR. what is this called

A

spontaneous recovery

26
Q

a UR is elicited by a ________

A

US

27
Q

in respondent conditioning, what happens to the NS after it is paired with a US?

A

it becomes a CS

28
Q

whats the US, UR, NS, CS, CR in the pavlov dog experiment?

A

US: meat powder
UR: salivate
NS: metronome
CS: metronome
CR: salivate

29
Q

in higher-order conditioning, a NS is paired with a(n)

A

already established CS

30
Q

in respondent extinction, the ____________ is presented in the absence of the US

A

CS
