Sleep and Sleep Disorders
This stage of sleep is associated with slow-wave sleep.
NREM-3 Sleep
This occurs when a drug user requires more and more of a given drug in order to experience the same effects of the drug.
Tolerance
This occurs when sensory information is organized, interpreted, and consciously experienced.
Perception
In this type of learning, the stimulus or experience occurs before the behavior and then gets paired with the behavior.
Classical conditioning
This type of learning can occur without direct reinforcement, simply by watching others succeed or fail.
Observational learning
Which cycles occur roughly once every 24 hours?
Circadian cycles
LSD affects this neurotransmitter.
Serotonin
These depth cues require the use of both eyes.
Binocular
Slot machines reward gamblers with money according to which reinforcement schedule?
Variable ratio schedule
In observational learning, this term refers to the person whose behavior is being watched and potentially imitated.
Model
Where is the body's biological clock located?
Hypothalamus
What type of dependence refers to drug cravings?
Psychological dependence
This principle involves objects that occur close to one another being grouped together.
Proximity
In Watson and Rayner’s experiments, Little Albert was conditioned to fear a white rat, and then he began to be afraid of other furry white objects. What does this demonstrate?
Stimulus generalization
In Bandura’s Bobo doll study, when the children who watched the aggressive model were placed in a room with the doll and other toys, what did the children do?
Act aggressively with the doll.
Growth hormone is secreted by the following gland while we sleep.
Pituitary gland
Cocaine blocks the reuptake of which neurotransmitter?
Dopamine
This is involved in maintaining balance and body posture.
Vestibular system
A child gets his phone taken away to help reduce the frequency of getting in trouble at school. What is this an example of?
Negative punishment
This type of observational learning occurs when the observer learns a behavior but delays performing it until a later time.
Latent learning
What could an individual be suffering from if there is disruption in the brain signals that are sent to the muscles that regulate breathing?
Central sleep apnea
When taking drugs of this class, individuals may experience increased heart rate, blood pressure and higher body temperature.
Stimulants
Decreased sensitivity to an unchanging stimulus is known as this.
Sensory adaptation
When does extinction occur in classical conditioning?
When the conditioned stimulus is presented repeatedly without being paired with an unconditioned stimulus.
This type of consequence, observed in others, can discourage someone from performing a similar behavior.
Vicarious punishment
