Behaviorists
He created the operant conditioning boxes for animals to escape.
Thorndike
Acquiring a new response (conditioned response) to the conditioned stimulus.
Acquisition
Reinforcing desired operant response Every Time
Continuous Schedule
Stimulus that the animal or human finds pleasant (Has an appetite for)
Appetitive stimulus
He is well known for studying the digestive system of dogs.
Pavlov
Diminishing of the conditioned response when the unconditioned stimulus no longer follows the conditioned stimulus.
Extinction
Reinforcing desired operant response Part of the Time
Partial Schedule
Stimuli that the animal or human finds unpleasant (Has an aversion to)
Aversive Stimulus
He is the most influential behavioralist and created Reinforcement and Punishment as terms to use.
Skinner
Partial recovery in strength of the conditioned response following a break during extinction training.
Spontaneous Recovery
Number of responses must be greater than 1, but is the same every time
Fixed Ratio
Stimulus-response pair (food in mouth = salivation)
Reflex
This person came up with the Law of Effect
Thorndike
Elicitation of the conditioned response by stimuli that are like the conditioned stimulus (more similar = stronger response).
Number of responses must be greater than 1, but is a different number of tries with a set average
Variable Ratio
The preparatory response for the upcoming Unconditioned Stimulus (Knowing the meat powder is coming)
Conditioned response
Russian Physiologist that won a Nobel Prize in 1904
Pavlov
Elicitation of the conditioned response only by the conditioned stimulus or only by a small set of highly similar stimuli that includes the conditioned stimulus.
Discrimination
Reinforcer is delivered after the first response following a set interval of time
Fixed-Interval Schedule
The Conditioned Stimulus remains until after the Unconditioned Stimulus is presented so the 2 can occur at the same time
Delayed Conditioning
