Study Notes
Types of Learning
- Classical conditioning is associated with linking stimuli to elicit a specific reaction, as demonstrated by Pavlov's dogs, where a neutral stimulus elicits an unconditional response.
- Operant conditioning involves changing behavior and voluntary choices in response to consequences, such as positive and negative reinforcement, which affects the probability of a behavior occurring.
Reinforcement
- Positive reinforcement involves increasing behavior by adding a reward, which strengthens the behavior and increases its frequency.
Observational Learning
- Observational learning is based on acquiring new behaviors and information through observation and imitation rather than direct experience, where an individual learns by observing others and imitating their behavior.
Memory Formation
- The hippocampus is responsible for transferring short-term memory to long-term memory, playing a critical role in memory formation and consolidation.
