100
how to tell one thing from another (tell one stimulus apart from another)
What is perceptual learning?
100
sensitization and habituation is happening at the same time when given two stimulus. influenced by environmental factors
What is the Dual Process Theory?
100
mere experience to judge the trait of an animal
What is discrimination training?
100
are within the hippocampus and are only active within a learned location
What are place cells?
100
Anchor point for navigation and these change how you estimate distance
What are landmarks/ borders/ barriers/ segmentation?
200
the more you are exposed to something. the more familiar a person becomes making it easier to tell the difference.
What is mere exposure learning?
200
comparing things in the world versus thing in your head
What is the comparator model?
200
expecting the stimulus which causes you to over respond
What is sensitization?
200
Where cognitive maps are stored; visual, motor, and planning areas
What is the frontal cortex?
200
This creates bias to spatial learning by have you overestimate the amount of distance traveled
What is distance traveled?
300
learning about one's surroundings/memory or perception of where things are
What is spatial learning?
300
idea that in order to recognize something in the world you would have to have seen that specific object in order to recognize the same item.
What is the template matching theory?
300
learning the stimulus in one orientation and can't transfer automatically to another group of stimuli
What is learning specificity?
300
type of anterograde amnesia; damage to right parahippocampal region;
What is landmark agnosia?
300
Physical and mental feeling of doing more so assuming there was more energy used.
What is the effort exerted?
400
learning that involves only one relatively isolated stimulus at a time
What is non-associative learning?
400
for certain objects you compare an average idea of that object; can explain discrimination, habituation, mere exposure learning, sensification,
What is prototype theory?
400
decrease in the strength or occurrence of a behavior after repeated exposure to the stimulus that produces the behavior
What is habituation?
400
a phenomenon in which prior exposure to a stimulus can improve the ability to recognize that stimulus later
What is priming?
400
if you can't see something you think it's further away then it is
What is Visibility?
500
involves learning to associate one stimulus with another or to associate a stimulus with a new response
What is associative learning?
500
initially you only notice a small amount of the stimulus but over time you notice more and more details
What is differentiation theory?
500
increases the connections to neurons by learning and is the modern engram.
What is Hebbian Learning?
