What is the view that pyshcoolgy should be an objective science that studies behavior without reference to mental processes.
100
Learning that certain events occur together. The events may be two stimuli (as in classical conditioning) or a response and it's consequences (as in operant conditioning).
What is associative learning.
100
Operant conditioning
A type of learning in which behavior is strengthened if followed by a reienforcer or diminished if followed by a punisher
100
Learning by observing others
What is observational learning
100
Primary reinforcer
An innately reinforcing stimulus such as alone that satisfies a biological need
200
Unconditioned response
What is in classical conditioning, the unlearned, naturally occurring response to the unconditioned stimulus, such as salivation when food is in the mouth
200
A type of learning in which an organism comes to associate stimuli. A neutral stimulus begins to produce a response that anticipates and prepares for the unconditioned stimulus.
What is Classical conditioning.
200
Respondent bahvior
Behavior that occurs as an automatic response to some stimulus;skinners term for behavior learned through classical conditioned
200
The process of observing and imitating a specific behavior.
What is modeling
200
Conditioned reinforcer
A stimulus that gains its reinforcing power through its association with a primary reinforcer.
300
Unconditioned stimulus
What is in classical conditioning, a stimulus that uncodntionally- natural(but now conditioned) stimulus.
300
The initial stage in classical conditioning: the phase associating a neutral stimulus with an unconditioned stimulus so that the neutral stimulus comes to elicit a conditioned response.
What is Acquisition
300
Operant behavior
Behavior that operates on the environment, producing consequences.
300
Frontal lobe neurons that fire when performing certain actions or when observing another doing so.
What is mirror neurons.
300
Continuous reinforcement
Reinforcing the desired response every time it occurs
400
Conditioned response
What is in classical conditioning, the learned response to a previously neutral
400
The diminishing of a conditioned response.
What is extinction
400
Positive, constructive, helpful behavior. The opposite of antisocial behavior.
What is pro social behavior
400
Partial reinforcement
Reonfocing a response only part of the time; results in slower acquisition of a response but much greater resistance to extinction than does continuous reinforcement
500
Conditioned stimulus
In classical conditioning , an originally irreverent stimulus that, after association with an unconditioned stimulus.
500
The reappearance, after a phase, of an extinguished conditioned response.
What is spontaneous recovery.
500
Operant chamber
A chamber also known as a skinners box, contacting a bar or key that an animal can manipulate to obtain a food or water reinforcer.
500
Who conducted an experiment using a bobo doll?
What is Albert Bandura.
500
Fixed-ratio schedule
In operant conditioning, a reinforcement schedule that reinforces a response only after a specified number of respsosnses
