Learning is based on the number of times/frequency  an association is made. 


Contingency Theory

100

The response that after conditioning follows a conditioned stimulus

Conditioned Response 

100

Consequence takes away something so future likelihood of behavior decreases 

Negative Punishment

100

Best known for Social Learning Theory - Learning happens by observing others. 

This is why only children are weird

Albert Bandura

200

A form of learning in which a previously neutral stimulus acquires the power to elicit the same innate reflex produced by another stimulus

Classical Conditioning

200

Brings about response without needing to be learned

Unconditioned Stimulus

200

Consequence adds something so future likelihood of behavior increases

Positive Reinforcement 

200

Best known for Learning Theory - Studied how cats learned how to escape from a box

Learning Theory

300

A form of learning that is deeply impacted by ones unconscious. Learning can occur when there is no reward 

Latent Learning

300

A stimulus that normally doesn't evoke a response

Neutral Stimulus

300

Consequence takes away something so future likelihood of behavior increases

Negative Reinforcement

300

Best known for developing a theory of Operant Conditioning - Used reinforcements/punishments to alter behavior

B.F. Skinner

400

All behavior is learned. 

Learning Theory

400

A response that naturally occurs without training

Unconditioned Response

400

Consequence adds something so the future likelihood of behavior decreases 

Positive Punishment

400

Best known for describing Classical Conditioning. 

Studied salivation and dogs

Ivan Pavlov

500

Learning happens by observing other behaviors

Albert Bandura

500

Once neutral stimulus that now brings about a response. 

Conditioned Stimulus

500

Creator of Operant Conditioning

B F Skinner

500

Best known for Latent Learning - learning occurs even when there is no reward
