Unit 3 Flashcards
Elicit: _____
Cause to strongly, consistently, reliably happen
Respondent behavior: _____
Reflex responses elicited by antecedent stimulus
Reflex: _____
Relation between antecedent stimulus and reflex response
Unconditioned reflex is the unlearned relation between: _____
Antecedent stimulus and innate response
Unconditioned stimulus is an: _____
Antecedent stimulus that elicits reflex response without prior learning
Unconditioned response is an: _____
Involuntary response elicited by US
Respondent conditioning: _____
Pairing neutral stimulus with US or CS
Contingent presentation of 2 stimuli at nearly the same time: _____
S-S pairing
Neutral stimulus: _____
Stimulus with no eliciting effect on the response
Conditioned stimulus is a : _____
Stimulus that elicits reflex response due to prior learning
Conditioned response is a: _____
Learned involuntary response elicited by CS
Conditioned reflex is the learned relation between: _____
Once neutral stimulus and involuntary response
Temporal contiguity: _____
Nearness of events in time
One stimulus (S) dependent upon another stimulus (S): _____
S-S contingency
Respondent extinction: _____
Conditioned reflex weakened by unpairing CS and US
Respondent conditioning results in: _____
New reflex relation
Respondent spontaneous recovery: _____
Sudden reappearance of previously extinguished conditioned reflex
Respondent stimulus generalization: _____
Spread of the effects of respondent conditioning to other stimuli
Higher-order conditioning: _____
Neutral stimulus paired with previously conditioned stimulus, not a US
Habituation:
A temporary reduction in a reflex response due to repeated presentations of the eliciting stimulus (US/CS) within a short period of time
Potentiation:
A temporary increase in some dimension or intensity of a reflex response due to repeated presentations of an eliciting stimulus within a short period of time
Sensitization:
The tendency of a (different) stimulus to elicit a reflex response following the elicitation of that response by a different stimulus
Adaptation:
Prolonged exposure to a stimulus response frequency or magnitude reduced
S-R relation: _____
Reflex
Unconditioned stimulus elicits: _____
Unconditioned response
Conditioned stimulus elicits: _____
Conditioned response
In respondent conditioning…
Neutral stimulus becomes > New conditioned stimulus
What elicits a conditioned response?
Conditioned stimulus
Pairing in respondent conditioning: ____
S-S contingency
Most effective: Conditioning Procedure
Short delay conditioning
Nearly always ineffective: Conditioning Procedure
Backward conditioning
Primary operation in respondent conditioning: _____
S-S pairing (NS > US)
on CS off
on US off
Short delay conditioning
on CS off
on US off
Long delay conditioning
on CS off
on US off
Trace conditioning
on CS off
on US off
Simultaneous conditioning
on CS off
on US off
Backward conditioning
Respondent relations refer to…
Antecedents stimuli that elicit responses
Contiguity ends with….
A stimulus (not a response)
Function-altering effect
Change of a neutral stimulus (NS) into a conditioned stimulus (CS)
Contingency
Dependency between events
Contiguity refers to…
The adjacency between events – regardless of causality
Contingency refers to…
The likelihood that one event is a result of another event
In potentiation…
The same stimulus is repeatedly presented (at the same intensity). Its effect increases with each sequential presentation.
In sensitization…
One stimulus causes a different stimulus to elicit the reflex
