Learning: Classical ConditioningLearning: change in behavior as a function of experienceConditioningClassical: learning to link two + stimuli and anticipate eventsOperant: associating actions with consequence –strengthened by positive reinforcement or diminished by punishmentSocial learning theory: learning social behavior by observation and imitation as well as reward and punishmentIvan Pavlov: Russian psychologist known for his work in classical conditioningUnconditioned stimulus (US) = stimulus that unconditionally (naturally or automatically) triggers a URNeutral stimulus (NS) = elicits no response prior to conditioningUnconditioned response (UR) = naturally occurring, unlearned response to a USConditional stimulus (CS) = after association with a US comes to trigger a CRConditioned response (CR) = a learned response to a previously neutral (but now conditioned) stimulusExtinction: when CS is no longer paired with the US, the CR is no longer elicitedSpontaneous recovery: pairing randomly occurs after extinction of a conditioned response (reappears)These notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture. GradeBuddy is best used as a supplement to your own notes, not as a substitute.Stimulus generalization: stimuli similar to the conditioned stimulus can elicit similar responses (more than one potential CS)Stimulus discrimination: the ability to differentiate between potential conditional stimuliBiological predispositions: preparedness to associate certain stimuli with certain
