Q

T/F: classical conditioning and operant conditioning are the same thing

A

false

19
Q

PAVLOV =

A

classical conditioning

20
Q

Pavlov paired the neutral stimulus of _________ with a natural reflex of ________

A

a tone; salivating

21
Q

first demonstration of associative learning =

A

pavlov’s dogs (classical conditioning)

22
Q

unconditioned stimulus (UCS) =

A

food

23
Q

unconditioned response (UCR) =

A

salivating

24
Q

conditioned stimulus (CS) =

A

tone/bell

25
Q

conditioned response (CR) =

A

salivating

26
Q

continued pairing of the ________ with the _______ STRENGTHENS behavior

A

CS; UCS

27
Q

in pavlov’s experience, the behavior was salivating; the more he strengthened the relationship between the CS (tone) and USC (food), the _________ the dogs salivated

A

more

28
Q

what occurs if you continually presented the CS (tone) with no UCS (meat powder/food); eventually the CR (salivating) will disappear; the tone no longer elicits salivation

A

extinction

29
Q

what if after extinction, you present the tone and then the meat powder? what happens?

A

behavior quickly returns to normal + no long training required

30
Q

CS and USC paired

A

acquisition

31
Q

UCS withheld

A

extinction

32
Q

CS again presented again and behavior quickly returns

A

spontaneous recovery

33
Q

spontaneous recovery is like the dog basically _________ previous learning

A

memorized

34
Q

the tendency to respond in the same way to different but similar stimuli; the larger the difference in pitch (than the original hertz learned), the less of a response will occur

A

stimulus generalization

35
Q

generalization must have _______ or we would fear a picture of a lion

A

limits

36
Q

learning to differentiate between various stimuli; react to some, not to others

A

stimulus discrimination

37
Q

T/F: stimulus generalization works at the same time as stimulus discrimination

A

true

38
Q

factors that influence the LEARNING of CONDITIONED responses (4):

A
  • timing
  • predictability
  • signal strength
  • attention to stimulus
39
Q

factor that influence the LEARNING of CONDITIONED responses: tone first and then the food causes the response

A

timing

40
Q

factor that influence the LEARNING of CONDITIONED responses: did the food come every time?

A

predictability

41
Q

factor that influence the LEARNING of CONDITIONED responses: if there is a low tone, the dog can’t hear it and will not response

A

signal strength

42
Q

factor that influence the LEARNING of CONDITIONED responses: was the organism paying attention; dog distracted = no classical conditioning

A

attention to stimulus

43
Q

intense/irrational fear that is debilitating (ex: intense fear of planes)

A

phobia

44
Q

uses classical conditioning principles to treat phobias (ex: showing you lots of pics of airplanes in a relaxing environment and then put you in an airplane seat)

A

systematic desensitization
