Learning and Unlearning fully solved
avoidance conditioning - correct answer ✔✔A learning process that teaches an individual to engage in
behavior that prevents an unpleasant consequence. It is thought to combine classical and operant
conditioning in the following way. If the daily paper or the television news frequently upsets you, you
associate that medium with unpleasant feelings common classical conditioning. You then discover that if
you stop reading the paper or watching TV news, you don't become nauseous, and you engage more and
more in this avoidance behavior because it is rewarded, operant conditioning.
classical conditioning - correct answer ✔✔Learning caused by the Association of a neutral stimulus with
a stimulus that strongly provokes a response. The conditioning process will cause the formerly neutral
stimulus to eventually provoke the response. If you have encountered an angry bear and a familiar forest
that was neutral before, that forest will now be likely to provoke fear or at least caution the next time
you enter it.
conditioned response (CR) - correct answer ✔✔In response that is triggered by a conditioned stimulus.
In the example below of CS you're feeling hungry and salivating when a bell is wrong if you haven't
eaten.
conditioned stimulus (CS) - correct answer ✔✔A neutral cue that becomes associated with the UCS and
then triggers the response that was produced by the UCS. In our food example, a bell might be rung
repeatedly when you haven't eaten and food is presented. Eventually through classical conditioning you
would salivate when the bell is wrong if you are hungry even though no food is presented.
operant conditioning - correct answer ✔✔Learning caused when a behavior is immediately followed by a
reward or punishment or the relief from punishment. If you experience delight when you eat a dove bar
then you are likely to eat more dove bars. If you get sick after eating you are first dove bar you are not
likely to eat more.
unconditioned response (UCR) - correct answer ✔✔A response that occurs naturally and automatically
without learning when an unconditioned stimulus UCS is present. An unexpected loud noise makes you
blink. The blink is this.
