Learning to associate 2 stimuli together, which leads to an organism anticipating
future events. Example: Ivan Paplov studied salivation in dogs as a precursor to
digestion.
Classical conditioning
Stimulus that automatically triggers a response naturally. Unlearned.
Unconditioned stimulus
Naturally occuring, unlearned response to an unconditioned stimulus. Unlearned.
Unconditioned response
Originally neutral stimulus that triggers a response after an association with an
unconditioned stimulus is formed. Learned.
Conditioned stimulus
Learned response to a stimulus that was originally neutral, but is now
conditioned.

Conditioned response
Occurs when the unconditioned stimulus is no linger paired with the conditioned
stimulus. Make the behavior go away.
Extinction
Stimuli similar to the conditioned stimulus will also elicit the conditioned
response. Avoid things that are similar to things that have hurt us.
Generalization
Controlling behavior through consequences. Behavior strengthened by
reinforcement and weakened by punishment.
Operant conditioning
Increases behavior by presenting a positive stimulus. Adding Example: giving dog
a treat to roll over
Positive reinforcement

Increases behavior by stopping a negative stimulus. Subtracting Example: you buy
your child a toy in the store and he stops crying. This will increase your toy buying
behavior.
Negative reinforcement
Does not have to be learned. Satisfies a biological need. Food. Water. Similar to
unconditioned stimuli.
Primary reinforcer
Has to be learned. These can get us the primary reinforcers. Good grades. Money.
Similar to conditioned stimuli.
Secondary reinforcer
Continuous and partial
Reinforcement schedules
