Question 1

The procedure of pairing a neutral stimulus with an unconditional stimulus.

Answer 1

Pavlovian conditioning

Question 2

Consists of an unconditional stimulus and an unconditional response

Answer 2

Unconditional reflex

Question 3

Acquired through Pavlovian conditioning and consisting of a conditional stimulus and a conditional response.

Answer 3

Conditional reflex

Question 4

The stimulus that elicits a conditional response

Answer 4

Conditional stimulus CS

Question 5

The response elicited by a conditional stimulus

Answer 5

Conditional response CR

Question 6

The response elicited by an unconditional stimulus

Answer 6

Unconditional response Ur

Question 7

The stimulus that elicits an unconditional response

Answer 7

Unconditional stimulus US

Question 8

1. The presentation of the two stimuli is independent of behavior
2. The behavior involved is a reflex response.

Answer 8

Two things to note about PC

Question 9

Pairing a neutral stimulus with a well-established CS

Answer 9

Procedure of higher order conditioning

Question 10

Many more stimuli can elicit conditional responses.

Answer 10

Outcome of higher order conditioning.

Question 11

A procedure in which the CS starts before, and overlaps with, the US.

Answer 11

Delayed conditioning

Most effective

Question 12

The CS begins and ends before the US is presented

Answer 12

Trace conditioning

Most effective

Question 13

The CS and US occur together I’m time.

Answer 13

Simultaneous conditioning

Least effective

Question 14

The US precedes the CS

Answer 14

Backwards conditioning

Least effective

Question 15

Failure of a stimulus that is part of a compound stimulus to become a CS. The stimulus is said to be … by the stimulus that does become a CS

Answer 15

Overshadowing

Question 16

Two or more stimuli presented simultaneously

Answer 16

Compound stimulus

Question 17

The failure of a CR to appear as a result of prior presentation of the CS in the absence of the US.

Answer 17

Latent inhibition

Question 18

Failure of a stimulus to become a CS when it is part of a compound stimulus that includes an effective CS

Answer 18

Blocking.

Same as overshadowing

Question 19

A procedure in which two neutral stimuli are paired, after which one is repeatedly with a US. If the other stimulus is then presented alone , It may elicit a CR even though it was never paired with the US

Answer 19

Sensory preconditioning

Question 20

Repeatedly presenting the CS without the US

Answer 20

Pavlovian extinction

Question 21

The sudden reappearance of a behavior following its extinction

Answer 21

Spontaneous recovery

Question 22

The theory that CS substitutes for the US. Assumes that the CR is essentially the same as the UR

Answer 22

Stimulus substitution theory
