NOTE These are the terms for the reading since the 3rd exam If you want the list of everything since the beginning I will make that soon I will also highlight all the terms that were more important on the exams ANOTHER NOTE The readings were assigned out of order 10 9 11 and 12 I have them in chapter order here 9 10 11 and 12 terms i consider to be important are highlighted in blue Chapter 9 i extinction ii forgetting sponse iii frustration i ii iii a complete lack of responding in the participants in classical conditioning involves repeated presentations of the CS without the US in instrumental conditioning involves no longer presenting the rein forcer when the response is performed decline in responding that may occur because the passage of time i ii does not require nonreinforcement of the CS or the instrumental re i the emotional reaction induced by withdrawal of an expected rein forcer i i ve seen this in my research and what happens is my rats will try to push the lever with their head mount you know the thing giving them drugs and if they can t push it right be cause they re fucking idiots we have to push it for them from the outside if we don t they freak out and think it has stopped working rats are really really stupid iv continuous reinforcement CRF i providing reinforcement every time the instrumental response is shown i ii iii iv so you know doing it right like not fucking it up this book is such a waste How much did I even pay for this i don t want to know v spontaneous recovery i when a rest period is introduced after extinction and afterwards the subject elicits the response for no real apparent reason ii not to be confused with spontaneous recovery in habituation vi renewal vii reinstatement i recovery of conditioned responding when the contextual cues that were present during extinction are changed i recovery of conditioned behavior that occurs when the individual en counters the US again for example say you acquire an aversion to fish because you got sick after eating some fish on your vacation then your aversion is extinguished by nibbling your friend s plate of fish on several occasions without getting sick according to rein statement if you get sick again your aversion to fish will return even if your illness had nothing to do with the fish i the reappearance of an extinguished target response when another reinforced response is extinguished viii resurgence i i for example take a parent going shopping with their lil shit of a kid to make the supermarket excursion easier the parent puts the child in the seat of the cart however the kid is bein a lil shit and squirming and wiggling around to get their parent s at tention not wanting to encourage it the parent just ignores them it works and eventually they stop wiggling after a while but the parent starts to feel bad for just ignoring them so they give the kid a toy to play with eventually the child gets bored with that too and the toy playing response is extinguished this extinguishing response will result in resurgence of the orig inal wiggling and squirming ii kids are terrible ix consolidation i i i i the establishment of a memory in relatively permanent form so that it is available for retrieval a long time after original acquisition x overtraining extinction effect the phenomenon that the stronger the response is reinforced the more frustrated the rat will be with withdrawal and the faster extinc tion will occur ii paradoxical because it involves fewer responses in extinction after more extensive reinforcement training xi magnitude reinforcement extinction effect the phenomenon that responding declines more rapidly in extinction following reinforcement with a larger reinforcer xii partial reinforcement extinction effect PREE the phenomenon that extinction is much slower and involves fewer frustration reactions if partial reinforcement rather than continuous reinforcement was in effect before extinction training xiii intermittent reinforcement same as partial reinforcement just not presenting reinforcement after every response i ii iii produces PREE xiv discrimination hypothesis an attempt to explain the PREE i ii extinction is slower after partial reinforcement than continuous rein forcement because the onset of extinction is more difficult to detect following partial reinforcement xv frustration hypothesis another attempt to explain the PREE i ii extinction is slower after partial reinforcement because the instru mental response becomes conditioned to the anticipation of frustra tive nonreward xvi sequential theory last attempt to explain the PREE i ii extinction is retarded after partial reinforcement because the instru mental response becomes conditioned to the memory of nonreward iii very similar to frustration but technically different i the susceptibility of responding to disruption by manipulations such as presession feeding delivery of free food or a change in the sched ule of reinforcement xvii behavioral momentum Chapter 10 i avoidance procedure ii punishment i i ii i ii participant subject has to give a certain response to avoid an aversive stimulus iii discriminated avoidance conversely to avoidance the target response produces an aversive outcome if you touch a hot stove you ll get burned duh an avoidance conditioning procedure in which occurrences of the aversive stimulus are signaled by a CS responding during the CS terminates the CS an prevents the delivery of the aversive US iii same as signaled avoidance iv avoidance trial i ii iii essentially a test trial testing to see if subject makes the target response before the shock is delivered if they perform the response before the shock the CS is turned off and the aversive US is avoided this is a successful avoidance trial v shuttle avoidance i i ii iii i i i i i i i an avoidance task where animals must jump over a small bar thingy to avoid shock FR1 and they have to jump over and back after a while FR2 ii we talked about this with learned helplessness two process theory of avoidance important ish vi this theory believes two processes are going on while an animal is avoiding an aversive stimulus the first process is classical conditioning activated by pairings of the warning CS and the aversive event US on trials when the organism doesn t make the response thus this first process is the classical con ditioning of fear to the CS the second process is instrumental reinforcement where the avoid ance response is rewarded with a lack of shock
