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

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