CHAPTER 7 BEHAVIOURAL VIEWS OF
LEARNING QUIZZES WITH ACCURATE
RIGHT ANSWERS.
Learning - Correct Answer -Process through which experience causes permanent change in
knowledge or behaviour
Behavioural learning theories - Correct Answer -Explanations of learning that focus on
external events as the cause of changes in observable behaviours
- James Watson: ental events should not be included in explanations of learning because you
cannot see them
Contiguity - Correct Answer -Association of two events because of repeated pairing
- Learning by association
Stimulus and response - Correct Answer -- stimulus: event that activates behaviour
- Response: observable reaction to a stimulus
classical conditioning - Correct Answer -Association of automatic responses with new stimuli
Neutral stimulus - Correct Answer -Stimulus not connected to a response
Unconditioned stimulus - Correct Answer -Stimulus that automatically produces an
emotional or physiological response
Unconditioned response - Correct Answer -Naturally occurring emotional or physiological
response
Conditioned stimulus - Correct Answer -Stimulus and emotional or physiological response
after conditioning
1
, Conditioned response - Correct Answer -Learned response to a previously neutral stimulus
Operants - Correct Answer -voluntary (and generally goal-directed) behaviors emitted by a
person or an animal
Operant conditioning - Correct Answer -Learning in which voluntary behaviour is
strengthened or weakened by consequences or antecedents
antecedents and consequences - Correct Answer -Antecedents are events that proceed an
action and consequences or events that follow an action
Reinforcement - Correct Answer -Providing consequences that strength and behaviour
- Behavior will increase in frequency or duration
Reinforcer - Correct Answer -Any event that follows a behaviour and increases the chances
the behaviour will occur again
Positive reinforcement - Correct Answer -Strengthening behaviour by presenting a desired
stimulus after the behaviour
- Appearance or presentation of a new stimulus
Negative reinforcement - Correct Answer -Strengthening behaviour by removing an aversive
of stimulus when the behaviour occurs
Punishment - Correct Answer -Process that weekends or suppresses behaviour
Presentation punishment - Correct Answer -Decreasing the chances of behaviour will occur
again by presenting an aversive stimulus following the behaviour also called type one
punishment
Removal punishment - Correct Answer -Decreasing the chances of behaviour will occur
again by removing a pleasant stimulus, following the behaviour also called type two
punishment
