PSY 110 Exam 2 (Illinois State University)
Questions With Correct Answers
type of learning through which an organism learns to associate one
| | | | | | | | | | |
stimulus with another - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Classical Conditioning
| | | | | |
in classical conditioning, the weakening and eventual disappearance of
| | | | | | | | |
the conditioned response as a result of repeated presentation of the
| | | | | | | | | | |
conditioned stimulus without the unconditioned stimulus - CORRECT
| | | | | | | |
ANSWER✔✔-extinction
occurs when unconditioned stimuli are linked together to form a series
| | | | | | | | | | |
of signals - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-higher-order conditioning
| | | | |
in classical conditioning, the tendency to make a conditioned response
| | | | | | | | | |
to a stimulus that is similar to the original conditioned stimulus -
| | | | | | | | | | | |
CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-generalization
|
stimulus that elicits a specific unconditioned response without prior
| | | | | | | | |
learning (the dog's food) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Unconditioned
| | | | | | |
Stimulus
,response that is elicited by an unconditioned stimulus without prior
| | | | | | | | | |
learning (dog's salivation) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Unconditioned
| | | | | |
Response
neutral stimulus that, after repeated pairing with an unconditioned
| | | | | | | | |
stimulus, becomes associated with it and elicits a conditioned response
| | | | | | | | | |
(the bell ringing) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Conditioned Stimulus
| | | | | |
the learned response that comes to be elicited by a conditioned
| | | | | | | | | | |
stimulus as a result of its repeated pairing with an unconditioned
| | | | | | | | | | |
stimulus (salivation to the bell) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Conditioned
| | | | | | | |
Response
intense dislike and/or avoidance of a certain food that has been
| | | | | | | | | | |
associated previously with nausea or discomfort - CORRECT
| | | | | | | |
ANSWER✔✔-Learned taste aversions | |
Operant conditioning technique that consists of gradually molding a
| | | | | | | | |
desired response be reinforcing any movement in the direction of the
| | | | | | | | | | |
desired response, thereby gradually guiding the responses toward the
| | | | | | | | |
ultimate goal (closer and closer approximations to the desired goal) -
| | | | | | | | | | |
CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Shaping
|
, pleasant or desirable consequence that follows a response and
| | | | | | | | |
increases the probability that the response will be repeated (ex: rat
| | | | | | | | | | |
learns to press a lever to receive food) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Positive
| | | | | | | | | | |
Reinforcement
termination of an unpleasant condition after a response, which
| | | | | | | | |
increases the probability that the response will be repeated (ex: rat
| | | | | | | | | | |
learns to push lever to turn off annoying stimulus like a loud buzzer) -
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Negative Reinforcement
| |
removal of a pleasant stimulus or the application of an unpleasant
| | | | | | | | | | |
stimulus, thereby lowering the probability of a response (ex: rat stops
| | | | | | | | | | |
pressing lever when doing so causes a loud buzzing sound) - CORRECT
| | | | | | | | | | | |
ANSWER✔✔-Positive Punishment |
a decrease in behavior that results from an added consequence (ex: rat
| | | | | | | | | | | |
stops pressing a lever because when doing so it removes a bowl of food
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
from his cage) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Negative Punishment
| | | | | |
a passive resignation to aversive conditions that is learned through
| | | | | | | | | |
repeated exposure to inescapable or unavoidable aversive events (ex:
| | | | | | | | |
students who fail repeatedly in school give up because they think it is
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
impossible for them to succeed) - CORRECT ANSWER✔✔-Learned
| | | | | | | |
