    Study Notes

    Classical Conditioning

    • Unconditioned stimulus: a stimulus that naturally elicits a response without any prior learning or conditioning.
    • Neutral stimulus: a stimulus that does not naturally elicit a response, but can become associated with an unconditioned stimulus to elicit a conditioned response.

    Conditioned Response

    • An example of a conditioned response is salivating when a bell rings, as a result of associating the bell with food.

    Effective Conditioning

    • Conditioning is most effective when the conditioned stimulus is presented immediately before the unconditioned stimulus.

    Pavlov's Experiment

    • The conditioned stimulus in Pavlov's classical experiment was the sound of a bell.

    Unconditioned Response

    • An example of an unconditioned response is salivating when food is presented.

    Spontaneous Recovery

    • Spontaneous recovery refers to the reappearance of an extinguished response after a period of time where no further conditioning has been presented.

    Stimulus Generalization

    • Stimulus generalization refers to the tendency for stimuli similar to those used in learning to elicit a reaction similar to the learned response.

    Second Order Conditioning

    • Second order conditioning involves establishing a conditioned response to a stimulus that is not the original conditioned stimulus, but has been associated with it.

    Response Substitution

    • Response substitution refers to the replacement of a conditioned response with another in front of the same stimulus, making them incompatible with each other.

    Systematic Desensitization

    • Systematic desensitization is based on the principle of gradual exposure to feared stimuli to reduce anxiety.

    Discrimination

    • Discrimination refers to the ability to distinguish between similar stimuli and respond only to the specific stimulus associated with the unconditioned stimulus.

    Extinction

    • Extinction refers to the weakening of the conditioned response because the conditioned stimulus was repeatedly paired without the unconditioned stimulus.

    Counter Conditioning

    • Counter conditioning involves replacing a conditioned response with a new response that is incompatible with the original response.

    Unconditioned Response

    • The unconditioned response is a reflexive response that occurs as a result of the unconditioned stimulus.

    Conditioned Stimulus

    • The conditioned stimulus acts as a substitute for the unconditioned stimulus, eliciting a conditioned response.

    Examples of Second Order Conditioning

    • An example of second order conditioning is conditioning a person to respond to a light, which was previously paired with a bell that was paired with food.

    Counter Conditioning

    • Counter conditioning involves replacing a conditioned response with a new response that is incompatible with the original response.

    Discrimination

    • Discrimination refers to the ability to distinguish between similar stimuli and respond only to the specific stimulus associated with the unconditioned stimulus.

    Spontaneous Recovery

    • Spontaneous recovery refers to the reappearance of an extinguished response after a period of time where no further conditioning has been presented.

    Stimulus Generalization

    • Stimulus generalization refers to the tendency for stimuli similar to those used in learning to elicit a reaction similar to the learned response.

    Response Substitution

    • Response substitution refers to the replacement of a conditioned response with another in front of the same stimulus, making them incompatible with each other.

    Systematic Desensitization

    • Systematic desensitization is based on the principle of gradual exposure to feared stimuli to reduce anxiety.

    Second Order Conditioning

    • Second order conditioning involves establishing a conditioned response to a stimulus that is not the original conditioned stimulus, but has been associated with it.

    Extinction

    • Extinction refers to the weakening of the conditioned response because the conditioned stimulus was repeatedly paired without the unconditioned stimulus.
