QuestionAnswer
Pavlov was a physiologist
Pavlov won a Nobel prize for dog digestion
Pavlov accidently discovered Classical conditioning
Reflex A behavior that is universally shown by all members of a species with very little conditioning. The behavior is adaptive for the environment.
Classical conditioning Exploits a pre-existing stimulus response reflex association in order to elicit a desired behavior.
S Stimulus
R Response
Responses in classical conditioning are unconditioned
Elicit will bring about
UCS/US Unconditioned stimulus
* Unconditioned Stimulus a stimulus that without conditions will elicit a predictable response
UCR/UR Unconditioned Response
Unconditioned Response A response that without conditions results predictably from an unconditioned stimulus
NS Neutral Stimulus
Neurtal Stimulus Stimulus that prior to conditioning produces no specific response
CS Conditional Stimulus
Conditional Stimulus A stimulus that will elicit a predictable response because of its previous pairing with a previously occurring reflex
CR Conditional Response
Conditional Response A predictable response to a stimulus that has influence because of its previously pairing with a previously occurring reflex
Association happens as a result of Learning
Classical conditioning shows an association between The conditioned stimulus and the unconditioned response
Basis Conditioning Phenomena Acquisition, Extinction, Spontaneous Recovery, Disinhibition, Conditioned Inhibition, Generalization and Discrimination
Aquisition Occurs during the initial pairing of the CS(NS) and the UCS.; Gradual strengthening of the association
Extinction Can reduce the strength of the association by repeatedly presenting the conditioned stimulus (CS) without the Unconditioned stimulus (UCS)
Spontaneous Recovery Partial recovery or reappearance of he CS-UCS association after a period of time without trials
Inhibition An external event that interrupts or inhibits the conditioned response (CR) on a given trail
Disinhibition An external event that distracts during extinction so as to cause the conditioned response (CR) to occur even after it has been extinguished; Opposite of generalization
Simultaneous conditioning Conditioned Stimulus and Unconditioned stimulus occur at the same time for the same duration
Trace conditioning Conditioned stimulus occurs prior to the unconditioned stimulus, delay between offset of the conditioned stimulus and the onset of the unconditioned stimulus
Short Delay stimulus conditioning short delay between onset of the conditioned stimulus and the onset of the unconditioned stimulus offset is the same
Backward conditioning unconditioned stimulus occurs prior to the conditioned stimulus
What form of conditioning works the best? Short Delay
What form of conditioning is least effecctive? Backward
Watson and little Albert Laboratory conditioning of fear or phobic responses to everyday items
Involuntary behaviors can be accounted for by? Classical conditioning
Emotional responses to most objects are a result of? Classical conditioning
Systematic desensitization Exposure therapy
Phobias excessive or irrational fear of an object, place, or situation as a result of classical conditioning of an unrelated stimulus to a fear provoking event
Aversive counter conditioning Replacing a positive emotional response with a negative on
