    Study Notes

    Classical Conditioning

    • In the Little Albert experiment, continuous associations between a white rat and a loud noise led to a conditioned response, where Little Albert exhibits fear upon seeing a white rat even without the loud noise.
    • Classical conditioning involves learning through associations between stimuli.

    Operant Conditioning

    • In the context of Little Albert, operant conditioning can maintain his fear by reinforcing his avoidance of rats, as he learns that staying away from rats reduces fear.
    • Operant conditioning involves learning through consequences, such as reinforcement or punishment, of behavior.

    Social Learning (or Social-Cognitive) Approach

    • The social learning approach suggests that Little Albert's younger sibling may develop a fear of white rats by observing and imitating Little Albert's behavior.

    Presenting Problems

    • The focus is on the client's current problems, starting with a functional/behavioral assessment through observation and/or self-monitoring.

    Behavioral Model

    • The behavioral therapy model emerged in the 1950s, departing from psychoanalytic models.
    • The model is grounded on a scientific view of behavior, focusing on observable behavior and learning experiences that promote behavior change.
    • It aims to increase people's skills for managing and responding to stressors.
    • The model has been successfully implemented in various fields, including clinical psychology, disabilities, rehabilitation, business, health behavior, and sports psychology.

    Key Concepts in Behavior Therapy

    • Behavior therapy is based on a systematic and structured approach to helping.
    • It focuses on observable behavior and learning experiences that will promote behavior change.
    • The model has evolved over time.
