neural activity

Question 5

humanistic

Answer 5

achieve greater filfulment
strive for greatest potential

Question 6

evolutionary

Answer 6

heritable adaptive responses to challenge faced by our ancestors

Question 7

reflex

Answer 7

automative behaviour in response to stimulus

unconditioned stimuli and unconditioned resoponse

Question 8

classical conditioning

Answer 8

netural stimulus paired with unconditioned stimulus to produce a reflex
neutral should produce a conditioned response

Question 9

extinction

Answer 9

conditioned stimulus utilised without unconditioned stimulus
will be rapidly lost

Question 10

spontainous recovery

Answer 10

connection traces remain so if learned again will be a quicker process

Question 11

stimulus generalistation

Answer 11

wide range of stimuli illlicit the same response

Question 12

stimulus discrimination

Answer 12

only some stimulus will ilicit same response

Question 13

blocking

Answer 13

new cs fails if next to other cs that is paired

Question 14

latent intention

Answer 14

cs stimuli presented prior without the pairing will be difficult to pair with new tings

Question 15

operant condition

Answer 15

repeat action with good consequences will occur whereas action with bad consequences will not occur

Question 16

reinforcement

Answer 16

more likely to occur

Question 17

punishment

Answer 17

less likely to reoccur

Question 18

positive

Answer 18

add

Question 19

ratio schedule

Answer 19

certain number of response given

Question 20

ratio schedule variable vs fixed

Answer 20

variable- varried number of responses
fixed- fixed number of response

Question 21

interval schedule

Answer 21

only occurs after a certain amount of time has passed

fixed= the amount of time

Answer 24

based on seeing consequences play out

Question 25

tutelege

Answer 25

direct instruction

Question 26

functional assessment

Answer 26

atecedent stimulus then identify problem behaviour then mantain consequences( pos or neg reinforcement)

Question 27

shaping

Answer 27

modify a specific behaviour to produce a new response

Question 28

chaining

Answer 28

teach more complex individualised steps= task analysis backwards forwards whole task

Question 29

reinforcers

Answer 29

effective reinforcement because everyone is different= taylor to individual primary meet biological need secondary meet other need/ want- money

Question 30

learning

Answer 30

An enduring change in responding based on experience
