Classical Conditioning
This refers to the tendency for a conditioned stimulus to lose its ability to evoke a conditioned response
Extinction
This term refers to something that increases the likelihood of a behavior
Reinforcer
In this application of classical conditioning, an individual is continuously presented with the fear-evoking stimuli
Flooding
This type of memory refers to our ability to remember to perform an act in the future
Prospective memory
This is defined as the processes by which information is encoded, stored, and retrieved
Memory
Before conditioning, this object elicits a natural response from an organism
Unconditioned stimulus
Getting a ticket after speeding is an example of...
Negative punishment
Putting bitter-tasting polish on your nails to get yourself to stop biting them is this type of application using classical conditioning
Aversion therapy
These are the three stages of memory
Sensory, short-term, long-term
In this type of long-term memory retrieval, an individual recognizes something that they have experienced
Recognition
In the Little Albert experiment, this term described the fact that his fear of rats "spread" to other stimuli, such as rabbits
Generalization
Making your bed to make your parent stop "nagging" you is an example of this
Negative reinforcement
This term refers to the procedure for teaching complex behaviors by reinforcing approximations of the target behavior
Shaping
This type of memory is split into two subdivisions: Iconic and echoic
Sensory
The idea that studying in the same room that you will later take an exam will help you perform better aligns with this phenomenon in long-term memory retrieval
Context-dependent memory
In Pavlov's experiment, ringing a bell became this term after being repeatedly paired with food
Conditioned stimulus
This type of reinforcement tends to be more resistant to extinction than the other type of reinforcement
Partial reinforcement
This type of intervention uses relaxation techniques and gradually exposing an individual to fear-evoking stimuli
Systematic desensitization
This phenomenon in short-term memory refers to our tendency to recall more accurately the first and last items in a series
Serial-position effect
This type of error in memory refers to when a person retains factual knowledge, but misremembers where, when, or how they acquired the information
Source misattribution
During this phase of classical conditioning, a researcher repeatedly pairs a conditioned stimulus with the unconditioned stimulus
Acquisition
Playing slot machines is an example of this type of reinforcement schedule
Variable ratio
This phenomenon, related to classical conditioning, is unique because it requires just one negative experience to cause a connection between stimuli
Taste aversion
This stage of memory has a capacity of 3-7 units
Sensory
The man from the video in class, Clive, suffered damage to this lobe of his brain
Temporal
