exam 1-Classical conditioning/Learning
UPDATED ACTUAL Exam Questions and
CORRECT Answers
Ivan Pavlov - CORRECT ANSWER - physiologist who studied the basic processes digestion
and discovered his learning theory (classical conditioning)
stimulus - CORRECT ANSWER - an action that brings about a response
response - CORRECT ANSWER - a reaction to a stimulus
spontaneous recovery - CORRECT ANSWER - when a previously extinguished Conditioned
Response (CR) returns after a rest interval
aversion - CORRECT ANSWER - avoidance
classical conditioning - CORRECT ANSWER - type of learning in which a stimulus acquires
the capacity to evoke a response that was originally evoked by another, formerly neutral,
stimulus
unconditioned response - CORRECT ANSWER - an automatic and not learned reaction to a
given stimulus
Pavlov's experiment - CORRECT ANSWER - NS - bell
UCS - food
UCR - drooling
CS - bell
CR - drooling
, Little Albert - CORRECT ANSWER - NS - the rat
UCS - loud noises
UCR - crying
CS - the rat
CR - crying
Little Albert - Neutral Stimulus - CORRECT ANSWER - the rat
Pavlovs Dog - Neutral Stimulus - CORRECT ANSWER - the bell
acquisition - CORRECT ANSWER - in classical conditioning the process through which an
organism learns to associate two events (the conditioned stimulus and the unconditioned
stimulus)
aversion therapy - CORRECT ANSWER - a form of treatment using classical conditioning to
cause an undesired behavior to create an unwanted response, thereby reducing the incidence of
the behavior.
conditioned response (CR) - CORRECT ANSWER - the learned or acquired response to the
conditioned stimulus
conditioned stimulus (CS) - CORRECT ANSWER - the stimulus that is neutral at the start of
classical conditioning and does not normally produce an unconditioned response but eventually
becomes associated with the unconditioned stimulus
extinction - CORRECT ANSWER - when a response no longer occurs. In classical
conditioning, extinction occurs when the conditioned stimulus is presented several times after the
unconditioned stimulus has been withdrawn.
