Study Notes
Conditioning
- Classical conditioning and operant conditioning are two main types of learning.
- Classical conditioning is a learning process in which an association is made between a neutral stimulus and an unconditioned stimulus, leading to a conditioned response.
- Operant conditioning is learning through reinforcement and punishment.
- In classical conditioning, an association is formed between two stimuli, whereas in operant conditioning, an association is formed between a behavior and its consequences.
- In classical conditioning, an unconditioned stimulus is a stimulus that naturally elicits an unconditioned response.
- The primary focus of operant conditioning is on how consequences shape behavior.
- Both classical and operant conditioning involve the concept of extinction, where the learned response weakens over time if it is no longer reinforced.
- A key difference between classical and operant conditioning is that classical conditioning involves involuntary responses, while operant conditioning involves voluntary responses.
- Operant conditioning involves the concept of reinforcement, which involves increasing the likelihood of a behavior by providing a positive consequence.
- The primary focus of classical conditioning is on learning associations between stimuli.
- Classical conditioning involves involuntary responses, while operant conditioning involves voluntary responses, making them key differences.
- In classical conditioning, an unconditioned response is a natural response elicited by an unconditioned stimulus.
