Two Types Of Simple Learning

Question 0

Classical conditioning (Pavlov)

Answer 0

Creation of involuntary responses to stimuli.

Question 1

Habituation

Answer 1

Tendency to respond to stimuli lessens as the stimuli become more familiar.

Question 2

Unconditioned stimulus

Answer 2

From the environment; triggers natural response.

Question 3

Unconditioned response

Answer 3

Natural reaction to UCS

Question 4

Conditioned stimulus

Answer 4

Paired with UCS; before pairing, the CS does not produce a response; after parent, it does.

Question 5

Conditioned response

Answer 5

A response to a CS; the CR is often the same as the UCR, but it is a learned response.

Question 6

Pavlov’s Experiment

Answer 6

CS (bell) - no response
UCS (food) - UCR (salivation to food)
UCS (food) + CS (bell) - UCR (salivation to food)
CS (bell) - CR (salivation to bell)

Question 7

Extinction

Answer 7

When the CS appears without UCS, the CR eventually disappears.

Question 8

Spontaneous recovery

Answer 8

After extinction, the CS reappears and elicits CR.

Question 9

Generalization

Answer 9

CR occurs to stimuli that are similar to CS.

Question 10

Discrimination

Answer 10

CR only occurs to CS that was previously paired with UCS
