Learning Flashcards
Classical Conditioning
Learning to make an involuntary response
Unconditioned Stimulus
naturally occurring stimulus leading to involuntary response
Unconditioned Response
an involuntary reflex to a natural stimulus
Natural Stimulus
Stimuli with no effect
Conditioned Stimuli
Causes a learned reaction
Conditioned Response
learned reaction to a Conditioned Stimuli
Stimulus Generalization
Responding to a stimuli similar to the original
Stimulus Discrimination
learning the difference between the real and fake stimuli
Extinction
weakening of Conditioned Response
Reinforce
event to increase the CR to happen again
Spontaneous Recovery
Reoccurrence of a learned response after extinction
Operant Conditioning
learning through good and bad consequences
Reinforcement
increases a response will happen again
Positive Reinforcement
When added action with continue
Negative Reinforcement
An action is repeated to stop pain
Punishment
Negative event to discourage an action
Shaping
Reinforcement of simple steps to form complex behavior
Fixed Interval Schedule of Reinforcement
A certain amount of time must pass before the reward
Variable Interval Schedule of Reinforcement
Time wait changes after each reward
Fixed Ratio Schedule of Reinforcement
Certain number of responses before reward
Variable Ratio Schedule of Reinforcement
Number of responses change each time
Latent Learning
Meaning hides itself until needed
Observational Learning
Learning a behavior by watching a model perform
Primary Reinforcement
Reinforces through basic needs
Secondary Reinforcement
Reinforces through praise
