Classical Conditioning Flashcards
Learning
Relatively permanent change in behavior from experience
Classical conditioning
Type of learning, paired to stimuli for response
Stimulus
Person, place, thing we respond to
Response
How we act or behave
Unconditioned stimulus (UCS)
Automatic person/place/thing
Unconditioned response (UCR)
Automatic act/behavior
Conditioned stimulus (CS)
Trained person/place/thing
Conditioned response (CR)
Trained act/behavior
Acquisition
Actual process (repetition and intensity)
Extinction
When response dies
Spontaneous recovery
After extinction, response comes back
Generalization
Same response to similar stimuli
Discrimination
Different response to similar stimuli
Ivan Pavlov
Trained dogs to salivate to bell
John Watson and Rosalie Rayner
Little Albert experiment, fear rats from loud noises (generalization)
Robert Rescorla and Allan Wagner
Sometimes classical conditioning is conscious, and it can still work
John Garcia and Robert Koelling
Taste aversion, avoid certain foods from classical conditioning
Relatively permanent change in behavior from experience
Learning
Type of learning, paired to stimuli for response
Classical conditioning
Person, place, thing we respond to
Stimulus
How we act or behave
Response
Automatic person/place/thing (food)
Unconditioned stimulus (UCS)
Automatic act/behavior (drooling)
Unconditioned response (UCR)
Trained person/place/thing (bell)
Conditioned stimulus (CS)
Trained act/behavior (drooling)
Conditioned response (CR)
Actual process of CC (repetition and intensity)
Acquisition
When response dies
Extinction
After extinction, response comes back
Spontaneous recovery
Same response, to similar stimuli (all bells)
Generalization
Different response to similar stimuli (only one bell)
Discrimination
Trained dogs to salivate to bell
Ivan Pavlov
Little Albert experiment, fear rats from loud noises (generalization)
John Watson and Rosalie Rayner
Sometimes classical conditioning is conscious, can still work
Robert Rescorla and Allan Wagner
Taste aversion, avoid certain foods from classical conditioning
