1
is an automatic, involuntary reaction to an unconditioned stimulus that occurs without prior learning
An unconditioned response
2
is a stimulus that does not initially produce a specific response, but may draw attention
A neutral stimulus
3
is when a neutral object, action, or person is connected to a specific response over time
Conditioned stimulus
4
is a behavior that does not come naturally, but must be learned by the individual by pairing a neutral stimulus with a potent stimulus
A conditioned response
5
Name the individual associated with classical conditioning
Ivan Pavlov
6
refers to the process of a behavior being learned
Acquisition
7
is the gradual weakening and eventual disappearance of a learned behavior when it is no longer reinforced
extinction
8
is when a behavior that was previously thought to be extinct reappears after a period of time
spontaneous recovery
9
definition is the occurrence when a response for one stimulus occurs for something else
A stimulus generalization
10
is a psychological concept that refers to the ability to differentiate between similar stimuli and respond differently to each
Stimulus discrimination
11
is a learning process that involves associating a neutral stimulus with a conditioned stimulus
higher-order conditioning
12
is a learned behavior or a procedure used in classical conditioning research that involves associating a neutral stimulus with a negative emotional response, such as fear or anxiety
A conditioned emotional response
13
Patients are gradually exposed to their phobias while learning relaxation techniques to replace fear with a sense of calm.
Systematic desensitization
14
repeatedly pairing a product or brand with a positive stimulus, like a catchy jingle, attractive imagery, or a beloved celebrity, to create a positive emotional association with the product in the consumer's mind, so that they eventually feel good just seeing the brand, even without the original positive stimulus present
Classical conditioning is used in advertising
15
is a behavioral psychology technique that rewards a desired behavior every time it occurs
continuous reinforcement schedule
16
psychology refers to a pattern where a behavior is only reinforced (rewarded) sometimes, not every time it occurspsychology refers to a pattern where a behavior is only reinforced (rewarded) sometimes, not every time it occurs
partial reinforcement schedule
17
is a schedule of reinforcement where a response is reinforced only after a specified number of responses
a fixed-ratio schedule
18
is a type of reinforcement schedule in psychology where a response is reinforced after an unpredictable number of responses
A variable ratio schedule
19
the process where a previously reinforced behavior gradually decreases and eventually disappears when the reinforcement for that behavior is withheld, while "generalization" means responding to similar stimuli in the same way as the original conditioned stimulus, essentially applying a learned behavior to new
operant extinction
20
a technique that increases a desired behavior by removing an unpleasant stimulus, while punishment is a technique that decreases an undesired behavior by either adding or removing a stimulus
Negative reinforcement
21
can lead to several potential problems including: creating fear and anxiety, fostering resentment, encouraging avoidance behaviors, promoting aggression, damaging self-esteem, hindering positive behavior development, and increasing the risk of abuse
Using punishment
22
adding an aversive stimulus to decrease a behavior, while "negative punishment" means removing a desirable stimulus to decrease a behavior
positive punishment
23
change in a person's or animal's environment that reduces the likelihood of a behavior happening again
punishment
24
means adding a desirable stimulus to increase the likelihood of a behavior occurring again, while "negative reinforcement" means removing an undesirable stimulus to achieve the same goal
positive reinforcement
25
psychological principle that states that behaviors are shaped by their consequences
Reinforcement
26
development of the theory of "Operant Conditioning," which posits that behavior is shaped by its consequences, meaning actions followed by positive outcomes are more likely to be repeated, while those with negative outcomes are less likely to occur
B.F. Skinner's primary contribution to psychology
27
is a learning principle that states a behavior is more likely to be repeated if it is followed by a positive consequence (reinforcement), and less likely to be repeated if followed by a negative consequence (punishment
Operant conditioning
28
is a type of reinforcement schedule that rewards a response after an unpredictable amount of time has passed
A variable interval schedule (VI schedule
29
is a reinforcement schedule where a reward is given after a set amount of time has passed
A fixed interval schedule
30
is a type of reinforcement schedule in psychology where a response is reinforced after an unpredictable number of responses
A variable ratio schedule
31
is a biologically relevant stimulus that naturally elicits a response without prior association or conditioning
An unconditioned stimulus
32
a type of learning where knowledge is acquired without immediate reinforcement or obvious demonstration, only becoming apparent when there is a motivation to use it
Latent learning
