Schedules of Reinforcement
100

the stimulus that elicits the response before conditioning occurs (without prior learning)

What is unconditioned stimulus?

100

a voluntary type of learning in which the organism is reinforced or punished for behavior

What is operant conditioning?

100

learning in which an organism decides to engage in a behavior based upon observations of others

What is observational learning?

100

procedure in which reinforcement is delivered for successive approximations of a desired response

What is shaping?

100

reinforcement that occurs after every correct response

What is continuous reinforcement?

200

stimulus that does not elicit a response

What is neutral stimulus?

200

this decreases the likelihood a behavior will occur again

What is punishment?

200
according to Bandura, the first step in social cognitive learning in which the organism "notices"

What is attention?

200

general suppression of of a behavior that occurs when the CS is presented without the UCS

What is extinction?

200

when the organism must make a certain number of correct responses before being reinforced

What is fixed ratio?

300

 A learned response to a CS that was previously a NS.  

What is conditioned response?

300

increases the likelihood the behavior will occur again

What is reinforcement?

300

another word for memory; second step on social cognitive learning

What is retention?

300

recovery of an extinguished response that occurs with the passage of time after extinction

What is spontaneous recovery?

300

reinforcement is delivered after the same period of time

What is fixed interval?

400

an initially NS that elicits a CR after association with an UCS

What is conditioned stimulus?

400

removing something from the environment 

What is "negative"?

400

the third step in social cognitive learning; replication of the model's behavior

What is motor reproduction?

400

gradual exposure therapy 

What is systematic desensitization?

400

when the reinforcement can be delivered after any amount of time if the desired behavior occurs within that time frame

What is variable interval?

500

tendency for the CS to evoke similar responses to stimuli that are similar to the CS

What is stimulus generalization?

500

adding something to the environment to 

What is "positive"?

500

demonstrating a behavior that is observed

What is modeling?

500

in this process, a new NS becomes a CS through an association with an already established CS

What is higher order conditioning?

500

when the reinforcement can be delivered after any number of correct responses

What is variable ratio?
