- Q1the initial stage in classical conditioning; the phase associating a neural stimulus with an unconditioned stimulus so that the neural stimulus comes to elicit a conditioned response; in operant conditioning, the strengthening of a reinforced responseAcquisitionGeneralizationExtinctionDiscrimination30s
- Q2learning that certain events occur together; the events may be two stimuli (as in classical conditioning) or a response and its consequences (as in operant conditioning)Observational LearningInsight LearningAssociative LearningModeling30s
- Q3the learning of behaviors that allow an organism to avoid an unpleasant or aversive stimulusLatent learningAvoidance LearningImprintingCognitive learning30s
- Q4the systematic use of learning principles to strengthen adaptive behavior and weaken maladaptive behaviorBehavior ModificationIntrinsic MotivationCognitive mapsSpontaneous Recovery30s
- Q5a type of learning in which an organism comes to associate stimuliObservational learningLatent learningClassical ConditioningOperant conditioning30s
- Q6learning that occurs without the opportunity to perform the learned response or be reinforced for itOperant conditioningCognitive LearningClassical conditioningModeling30s
- Q7a stimulus that gains its reinforcing power through its association with a primary reinforcer; also known as secondary reinforcerConditioned Reinforcers30s
- Q8in classical conditioning, the learned response to a previously neutral (but now conditioned) stimulusConditioned Response30s
- Q9in classical conditioning, an originally irrelevant stimulus that, after association, with an unconditioned stimulus (US), comes to trigger a conditioned responseConditioned Stimulus30s
- Q10reinforcing the desired response every time it occursContinuous Reinforcement30s
- Q11in classical conditioning, the learned ability to distinguish between a conditioned stimulus and stimuli that do not signal an unconditioned stimulusDiscrimination30s
- Q12the diminishing of a conditioned response; occurs in classical conditioning when an unconditioned stimulus (US) does not follow a conditioned stimulus (CS); occurs in operant conditioning when a response is no longer reinforcedExtinction30s
- Q13a desire to perform a behavior due to promised rewards or threats of punishmentExtrinsic Motivation30s
- Q14in operant conditioning, a reinforcement schedule that reinforces a response only after a specified time has elapsedFixed Interval Schedule30s
- Q15in operant conditioning, a reinforcement schedule that reinforces a response only after a specified number of responsesFixed Ratio Schedule30s
