Pavlovian/ Operant
The response elicited by a conditional stimulus
What is a conditional response?
A deterioration in learned behavior following a retention interval
What is forgetting?
Measuring learning by how many mistakes are made
What is measuring by number of Errors?
A continuous reinforcement schedule (CRF) is consistent with this other schedule
What is a FR 1?
This law states that "behavior is a function of its consequences"
What is the Law of Effect?
A variation of Pavlovian conditioning in which a neutral stimulus is paired, not with a US, but with a well-established CS
What is Higher-Order Conditioning?
A method of measuring forgetting that consists of providing the opportunity to perform the learned behavior without prompts
What is free recall?
Measuring learning by the change in rate one performs an activity
What is measuring by Speed?
This schedule of reinforcement would be used if you want to produce the most rapid learning of a new behavior
What is CRF or FR 1?
This is the observation that high-probability behavior reinforces low- probability behavior
What is the Premack Principle?
In this type of conditioning, the CS begins and ends before the US appears
What is Trace Conditioning?
A period between training and testing for forgetting
What is a retention interval?
Measuring learning by how long it takes for the response to follow the stimulus
What is measuring by Latency?
This type of reinforcement schedule provides reinforcement every 10 seconds NO MATTER WHAT
What is a FT 10''?
The ability to tell the difference between different stimuli
What is Discrimination?
The failure of a CR to appear as a result of prior presentation of the CS in the absence of the US
What is Latent Inhibition?
Any device for aiding recall (e.g., acronyms)
What is a mnemonic?
Measuring learning by how many CORRECT responses over a period of time
What is measuring by Fluency?
These types of reinforcement schedules do not reinforce the organism after each behavior
What are intermittent schedules?
An _____ is a stimulus that indicates that a particular behavior will be reinforced
What is an S+ or SD?
Failure of a stimulus to become a CS when it is part of a compound stimulus that includes an effective CS
What is Blocking?
Forgetting caused by learning prior to the behavior in question
What is proactive interference?
Measuring learning by the change in the arrangement of the natural and artificial physical features of an area
What is measuring by Topography?
This differential reinforcement procedure cannot be performed at the same time as the unwanted behavior
What is the differential reinforcement of incompatible behavior (DRI)?
In this type of experiment, all participants participate at a baseline period and a follow-up period
What is a within-subjects experiment?
