Operants and Respondents Flashcards
ontogenic
operant, evoked, learned
phylogenic
respondent, elicited, unlearned
operants
are evoked, learned, ontogenic
respondents
are elicited, unlearned, phylogenic, like reflexes
operant conditioning
behavior is evoked by antecedents and consequences; learned, ontogenic
respondent conditioning
behavior is elicited by pairing of US with NS to produce CS from previously NS
unconditioned response
reflex, phylogenic; elicited by unconditioned stimulus
unconditioned stimulus
elicits and unconditioned response (reflex)
habituation
reduction in unconditioned response due to repeated presentation of unconditioned stimulus
neutral stimulus
has no effect on behavior
conditioned response
elicited by a conditioned stimulus
conditioned stimulus
elicits a conditioned response; was once neutral but now elicits similar response as US due to pairing of stimuli
respondent extinction
reduction in conditioned response due to repeated presentation of CS without being paired with US
operant behavior
behavior is elicited because of history of consequences in presence of certain antecedent stimuli, S-R-S/ A-B-C
rule governed behavior
behavior acquired without contact with consequences
