Quite Stimulating
100

A type of associative learning, also referred to as Pavlovian, in which two or more stimuli are linked

what is classical conditioning

100

A type of learning in which a behavior is shaped if followed by a reward or a punishment

what is operant conditioning

100

Reinforcing the desired response every time it occurs, and a schedule in which learning is quickest

what is a continuous reinforcement schedule

100

The tendency to respond to similar stimuli, or for responses learned in one situation occurring in other similar situations

What is generalization

100

The desire to perform a behavior due to promised rewards or threats of punishments.

what is extrinsic motivation

100

Psychologist famous for the popular "Bobo Doll" experiment

Who is Albert Bandura?

100

An onion's smell as you cut it, which makes your eyes water.

Unconditioned Stimulus

200

An unlearned, naturally occurring response

what is an UR

200

Psychologist who created the operant chamber, with its other name being named after him

Who is B.F. Skinner

200

A reinforcement schedule that reinforces a response after an unpredictable number of responses and produces the highest rates of responses in partial reinforcement

what is a variable-ratio schedule

200

The reappearance, after a pause, of an extinguished CR

what is spontaneous recovery

200

A desire to perform a behavior effectively for its own sake

what is intrinsic motivation

200

The process of observing and imitating a specific behavior

what is modeling

200

This could be the bell that tells you to go to your next class.

Conditioned Stimulus

300

A stimulus that elicits no response before conditioning

What is a neutral stimulus (NS)

300

Its presentation increases behaviors through positive rewards

what is positive reinforcement

300

This schedule produces a slow, steady response and the greatest resistance to extinction

what is a variable-interval schedule

300

The diminishing of a CR when an US no longer follows a CS; or decreased responses without reinforcement

what is extinction

300

A mental representation of the layout of one's environment

what is a cognitive map

300

Many argue that the Bobo Doll Experiment illustrates how exposure to media violence leads to an increased expression of this emotion

What is aggression?

300

People learn to automatically say “you’re welcome” when they hear “thank you”

Conditioned Response

400

An originally neutral stimulus that, after association with an US, comes to trigger a CR

what is a CS

400

This increases behaviors by stopping or reducing aversive stimuli

what is negative reinforcment

400

A learning schedule in which acquisition of a response is delayed but resistance to extinction is enhanced

what is a partial (intermittent) reinforcement schedule

400

Learning to distinguish between a CS and other stimuli that do not signal a US; or learning that some responses, but not others, will be reinforced

what is discrimination

400

Learning that occurs but is not apparent until there is an incentive to demonstrate it

what is latent learning

400

The hopelessness and passive resignation experienced when unable to avoid repeated aversive events

what is learned helplessness

400

When you hear a loud noise, you jump in fear.

Unconditioned Response

500

A procedure in which the CS is paired with a new NS, creating a 2nd (often weaker) CS.  

what is higher-order conditioning

500

An event that tends to decrease behavior by withdrawing a rewarding stimulus

what is negative punishment

500

This schedule produces a start-stop pattern of responses

What is a fixed-interval schedule

500

The initial stage, when one links a neutral stimulus (NS) and an US; or associating a response with a consequence

what is acquisition

500

If an individual is rewarded for a behavior that they performed because of intrinsic motivation, eventually the intrinsic motivation will cease to exist

What is the overjustification effect?

500

Frontal lobe neurons that are believed to fire when observing others

what are mirror neurons
