Classical conditioning
Hodge Podge
100
This type of learning occurs by the strengthening of a behavior by reinforcement or punishment.
What is operant conditioning?
100
This treatment of phobias that involves prolonged exposure to a feared stimulus.
What is flooding?
100
This reinforcement schedule only reinforces some responses.
What is intermittent (partial) reinforcement schedule?
100
The weakening or elimination of a conditioned response when a conditioned stimulus is repeatedly presented without the unconditioned stimulus.
What is extinction?
100
This type of learning occurs when a behavior is modeled and witnessed by an observer, and the observer's behavior changes.
What is observational learning?
200
This process of learning where a stimulus produces a response because it has been paired with another stimulus.
What is classical conditioning?
200
This therapy applies principles of learning to help clients change undesirable behaviors.
What is behavior therapy?
200
In this schedule, reinforcement is given after a fixed, predictable number of responses.
What is fixed ratio schedule?
200
The reappearance of a conditioned response to a CS after a rest period.
What is spontaneous recovery?
200
Behavior that can be observed by an individual other than the one performing it.
What is overt behavior?
300
This conditioning procedure uses an unconditioned stimulus that an organism wishes to avoid to elicit a response.
What is a aversive conditioning?
300
This treatment of phobias involves pairing relaxation gradually increasing levels of fear inducing stimuli.
What is systematic desensitization?
300
In this schedule, reinforcement is given after a varying, unpredictable number of responses.
What is variable ratio schedule?
300
When a established conditioned stimulus interferes with the conditioning of a new CS.
What is blocking?
300
Rewarding successive actions toward a behavior.
What is shaping?
400
Conditioning procedure where the neutral stimulus and the unconditioned stimulus are presented at the same time.
What is simultaneous conditioning?
400
This therapy reduces the attractiveness of a desired event by associating it with an aversive stimulus.
What is aversion therapy?
400
A schedule where the reinforcement is directly contingent upon the organism's rate of response.
What isWhat is response-rate schedule?
400
When a familiar stimulus is harder to condition than an unfamiliar stimulus.
What is latent inhibition?
400
A predictive relationship between two events; the occurrence of one event predicts the probable occurrence of another event.
What is contingency?
500
A situation when an elicited response appears to be a conditioned response but is actually the result of sensitization rather than conditioning.
What is pseudoconditioning?
500
Learning a new response to a stimulus that has previously elicited an undesirable behavior.
What is counterconditioning?
500
In this schedule, reinforcement is given after a varying, unpredictable period of time, regardless of the organism's behavior.
What is variable time schedule?
500
The tendency for a response to be elicited more by one stimulus than another.
What is stimulus discrimination?
500
This disorder happens to animals that develop neurotic-like symptoms after being exposed to unpredictable events in experiments.
What is experimental neurosis?
