Q

Temporal Conditioning Definition

A

the US (unconditioned stimulus) is simply presented at regular intervals without any other CS (conditioned stimulus). the CS (conditioned stimulus) is therefore the “passage of time”

Q

Temporal Coding Definition

A

association between the CS (conditioned stimulus) and US (unconditioned stimulus), but also come to know when to expect the presentation of the US (unconditioned stimulus)

Q

Compound Stimulus Definition

A

two or more stimuli are presented at the same time. often when more than one stimulus is presented, conditioning only happens to one stimulus …

Q

Latent Inhibition (preexposure effect) Definition

A

occurs when an individual has had prior exposure to a stimulus without the US (unconditioned stimulus). prior experience with a stimulus makes it more difficult for it to become a CS (conditioned stimulus)

Q

Sensory Preconditioning Definition

A

two stimuli often appear together and become associated. a learned response to one lead to the same response to the other

Q

External Inhibition Definition

A

presentation of a novel stimulus at the same time as the CS (conditioned stimulus) will lead to a decrease in the CR (conditioned response). the novel stimulus inhibits the CR (conditioned response)

Q

Stimulus Generalization Definition

A

a stimulus similar to the CS (conditioned stimulus) also elicits a CR (conditioned response)

16
Q

Stimulus Discrimination Definition

A

individuals learn to respond to one specific CS (conditioned stimulus), and not the other, similar stimuli

17
Q

Stimulus Substitution Theory Definition

A

states the CS (conditioned stimulus) substitutes for the US (unconditioned stimulus), and the CR (conditioned response) is essentially the same as the UR (unconditioned response)

18
Q

Preparatory Response Model Definition

A

states that the purpose of the CR (conditioned response) is to prepare the organism for the US (unconditioned stimulus). this models allows for differences in the CR (conditioned response) and UR (unconditioned response)

19
Q

US Revaluation Definition

A

exposure to a US (unconditioned stimulus) of a different intensity than the US (unconditioned stimulus) used during conditioning can lead to heightened responses

20
Q

Systematic Desensitization Definition

A

the fear-inducing stimulus is imagined or encountered while relaxed

21
Q

Selective Sensitization Definition

A

unrelated stressful events can increase reactivity to a fearful stimuli

22
Q

Flooding Definition

A

prolonged exposure to something feared (fear factor)

23
Q

Voyeuristic Disorder

A

watching people without their knowledge

24
Q

Exhibitionistic Disorder

A

displaying genitals to another person without consent

25
Q

Fetishistic Disorder

A

attraction to certain objects/body parts, such as feet

26
Q

Sexual Sadism Disorder

A

inflicting pain on a sexual partner

27
Q

Sexual Masochism Disorder

A

being humiliated or hurt by a sexual partner

28
Q

Pedophilic Disorder

A

sexual activity with a prepubescent child

29
Q

Conditioned Inhibition Definition

A

when a CS (conditioned stimulus) does NOT lead to a US (unconditioned stimulus), and individuals response to that CS (conditioned stimulus is inhibited (less than baseline)
