I could get used to this
In the film that we watched in class, this novel stimulus was used to demonstrate habituation in babies.
What is a jar of cayenne pepper?
This principle says practicing something past perfection improves savings.
What is overlearning?
See image #1
What is Black Box Theory?
also acceptable: “What’s in the box?”
It occurs when a CS is presented alone.
What is extinction?
The reflex arc is composed of these three types of neurons.
What are sensory, inter-, and motor neurons?
In the film that we watched in class, babies became habituated to a jar of cayenne pepper. Doing this would have caused faster habituation.
What is “making the (stimulus) more boring”?
(e.g., using a less colorful spice)
According to this phenomenon, a neutral stimulus can become excitatory when it is paired with another CS that has already been conditioned.
What is higher-order conditioning?
See image #2
What is the forgetting curve?
In classical conditioning, use of this temporal arrangement can result in inhibitory conditioning.
What is backward conditioning?
These two tests help you to determine whether a CS- is really inhibitory.
What are (1) summation and (2) retardation tests?
According to this phenomenon, presenting the bell repeatedly before pairing it with food would have weakened acquisition.
What is the CS pre-exposure effect?
The tendency to become conditioned to the more salient of two stimuli.
What is overshadowing?
See image #3
What is a habituation curve?
According to this model, learning will not occur unless the learner is surprised.
What is the Rescorla-Wagner model?
These three phenomena demonstrate that the conditioned response never really disappears.
What are (1) spontaneous recovery; (2) reacquisition; and (3) disinhibition?
According to this habituation phenomenon, presentation of a new stimulus will cause the response to the habituated stimulus to reappear.
What is dishabituation?
The Rescorla-Wagner model was used to discover this new phenomenon.
What is overexpectation?
The effect on conditioning of presenting a stronger conditioned stimulus.
What is faster learning/ a steeper acquisition curve?
DRAW IT for extra points (axes must be correct)
These conditioned stimuli suppress behaviors rather than elicit them.
What are conditioned inhibitors (CS-)?
Five temporal arrangements in classical conditioning.
What are (1) short-delay; (2) simultaneous; (3) long-delay; (4) trace; and (5) backward conditioning?
