CHAPTER 6 & 7 test

QuestionAnswer
A stimulus is something that produces a reaction or response. True
Classical conditioning relies on pairing a unconditioned stimulus(US) with an conditioned stimulus(CS), so that the new CS produces the same response as the original US. True
Classical conditioning usually produces a__________________ response. Involuntary
I am responsible for in-depth research on classical conditioning, like my salivating dog experiment. Pavlov
In the salivating dog experiment, the meat was the conditioned stimulus. False
Steering clear of peanuts, because of your known peanut allergy, is an example of a learned taste aversion. True
When a conditioned stimulus is no longer followed by an unconditioned stimulus it will eventually lose its ability to bring about a conditioned response. This is called: Extinction
Displaying a response that was previously extinguished is called spontaneous recovery. True
Discrimination is the act of responding in the same way to stimuli that seem similar. False
Letting a spider crawl on the arm of someone who has arachnophobia (fear of spiders) is an example of flooding. True
The story about the boy who cried wolf is an example of which concept? Extinction
The Watson experiment known as Little Albert is an example of which type of learning? Classical conditioning
Operant conditioning teaches subjects to exhibit behavior that has positive consequences and eliminate behavior that has negative consequences. True
Examples of primary reinforcers would be: Food, shelter, sex, water
Negative reinforcers are the same as punishments and positive reinforcers are rewards. False
Having to pay a fine for speeding is an example of negative reinforcement. False
A schedule of reinforcement for every fifth response is a/an __________schedule. Ratio
Knowing how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, but never actually making the sandwich until one day when you are craving it, is an example of latent learning. True
An example of operant conditioning is when a student acts up in class because he learns it will draw the attention of the class and teacher to himself. True
A Skinner box is a mini laboratory where treatments can be introduced or removed while allowing for easy observation. True
Three basic memory processes encoding, storage, retrieval
Positive reinforcement presenting pleasant stimuli to encourage a behavior
Negative reinforcement removal of an unpleasant stimulus to encourage a behavior
Reinforcer receiving/removing an item or acknowledgement that encourages you to repeat the same behavior
observational learning when you watch someone perform a task acquiring knowledge to perform the same task
tip of the tongue feeling you know something, but are unable to recall it
classical conditioning type of learning where stimulus gains the ability to cause a response that another stimulus had originally provoked
operant conditioning examples braiding hair, learning to knit, zipping your pants
Learning relatively durable change in behavior due to knowledge
Why do most students find recognition tests easier than recall? Recognition tests is because of multiper choices and recall is writing in the box.
example of classical conditioning learning to find the sound of a voice soothing because you associate it with peacefully falling asleep, the smell of tacos reminds you fondly of home
What do we call it when an event following a response weakens our tendency to repeat the response? Ex. I skip school and get paddled for it.
continuous reinforcement you reinforce every occurrence
shaping learning a skill through gradually improving attempts
What must happen before a memory can be retrieved? encoding retrieval
Recall measuring memory by having subjects reproduce info without cues
long term memory unlimited storage
short term memory approx 7 items in capacity
Create an example of classical conditioning that could be applied to the following scenarios (identify the us,ur, cs, and cr): crunching wintergreen lifesavers that spark, blowing bubbles
Classical Conditioning Ivan Pavlov
Operant Conditioning B. F. Skinner
Observational Learning Albert Bandura
