Unconditioned Stimulus (1)
A stimulus that elicits a biological reflex (1)
Conditioned Stimulis (3)
A previously neutral stimulus (1)
Paired with an US (1)
Comes to elicit a reflex (1)
Respondent Conditioning (3)
US elicits UR (1)
NS-US pairing (1)
NS elicits CR (1)
Learning (4)
Acquisition, change and maintenance of behaviour (3) due to lifetime events (1)
Reflex (3)
Respondent behaviour (1)
Elicited by biologically relevant stimuli (1)
Can be conditioned (1)
Behaviour (2)
Everything an organism does (1)
Includes thinking and feeling (1)
Negative Punishment (3)
The removal of a positive stimulus (1)
Response cost (1)
Decreases the likelihood of a behaviour occurring again (1)
Discriminative Stimulus (2)
Antecedent (1)
Signals that consequences are available for a behaviour (1)
Respondent Extinction (2)
Presentation of the CS without the US (1)
Decline in the strength if the conditioned response (1)
Positive Reinforcement (2)
The application of a positive stimulus (1)
Increases the likelihood of a behaviour occurring again (1)
Positive Punishment (2)
The application of a negative stimulus (1)
Decreases the likelihood of a behaviour occurring again (1)
Negative Reinforcements (2)
The removal of a negative stimulus (1)
Increases the likelihood of a behaviour occurring again (1)
Operant Extinction (2)
Withholding of a previously available reinforcer (1)
Behaviour eventually stops (1)
Extinction Burst (4)
Increased frequency, intensity and variability of behaviour at the beginning of extinction (4)

Habituation (1)
Decrease in the UR following repeated presentation of the US (1)
Blocking (2)
Current CS blocks conditioning of a NS (1)
In a compound stimulus (1)
Latent Inhibition (1)
Familiar stimuli take longer to become CS (1)
