28 Questions
During extinction, inhibitory associations form between the context and the US or no US. When are inhibitory associations activated?
Only when both the tone and the context are active
What happens when the context association is removed?
The original association is retrieved
In operant conditioning, what becomes associated with both the response and the outcome?
The conditioned stimulus (CS)
When does induced reinstatement occur?
When all contexts induce reinstatement
What happens when the cue is extinguished in drug seeking behavior?
Drug seeking behavior decreases
Which components of extinction should reduce responding at test?
All of the above
Which type of conditioning shows more generalisation of the original conditioning across different contexts?
Classical conditioning
What is renewal in operant conditioning?
The tendency to return to the original acquisition response
What is the effect of time on spontaneous recovery?
Time increases spontaneous recovery
How does the temporal difference between extinction and test affect the retrieval of the initial response?
It has no effect on the retrieval of the initial response
What is the clinical significance of spontaneous recovery?
It is a predictor of relapse
Which of the following is true about extinction learning within the reconsolidation window?
It interferes with the reconsolidation process and removes the original association
Which of the following disrupts the process of consolidation?
Protein synthesis inhibitors
What is the physical process of forming and storing a memory within a specific time window called?
Consolidation
Which of the following is true about the effect of age on extinction?
Infancy and juvenile periods do not show the same retrieval effects as adults and adolescents
What is the division of the nervous system that includes the central and peripheral nervous systems called?
Nervous system
Which subdivision of the autonomic nervous system is responsible for the fight or flight response?
Sympathetic nervous system
Which type of conditioning is learning that events, objects, or contexts will predict outcomes?
Pavlovian conditioning
What is the definition of extinction in classical conditioning?
The decrease in the conditioned response as a result of CS alone presentations
What is the definition of extinction in operant conditioning?
The increase in the conditioned response during extinction
What does extinction learning result in?
A decrease in the associative strength between the CS and the US
What is the net behavioral decrease during extinction learning a result of?
The sum of the original association and the inhibitory association
Which one of the following is true about retrieval of extinct response?
Retrieval of extinct response is dependent on context and cues.
Which one of the following is true about reinstatement in operant conditioning?
Reinstatement in operant conditioning occurs when a small amount of the reinforcer is presented.
Which one of the following is true about renewal in Pavlovian conditioning?
Renewal in Pavlovian conditioning occurs when the original context is returned to after extinction.
Which one of the following is true about renewal in operant conditioning?
Renewal in operant conditioning occurs when the original context is returned to after extinction.
Which one of the following is true about acquisition and extinction?
Acquisition is less context-specific, while extinction is context-specific.
Which one of the following is true about renewal and relapse?
Renewal can lead to relapse in humans.
