PY 101 Exam 3 UA
Reflex - correct answer ✔-Inevitable, involuntary response to stimuli
-independent of experience
-simplistic
Instinct - correct answer ✔-An inborn pattern of behavior elicited by
environmental stimuli.
-independent of experience
-Complex
Learning - correct answer ✔-A relatively permanent change in behavior or
the capacity for behavior due to experience.
-Dependent on Experience
-Can be simplistic or complex.
Associative Learning - correct answer ✔-The formation of associations or
connection among stimuli and behaviors.
Classical Conditioning - correct answer ✔A type of learning in which
associations are formed between two stimuli that occur sequentially in time.
Operant Conditioning - correct answer ✔A type of learning in which
associations are formed between behaviors and their outcomes.
Nonassociative Learning - correct answer ✔Learning that involves changes
in the magnitude of responses to a stimulus.
, Habituation - correct answer ✔A simple form of learning in which reactions to
repeated stimuli that are unchanging and harmless decrease.
Sensitization - correct answer ✔An increased reaction to many stimuli
following exposure to one very strong stimulus.
Observational Learning - correct answer ✔Learning that occurs when an
organism watches the actions of another.
Acquisition - correct answer ✔The development of a learning response.
Contiguity - correct answer ✔The unconditioned stimulus has to quickly
follow the conditioned stimulus.
Contingency - correct answer ✔The unconditioned stimulus has to reliably
follow the conditioned stimulus
Extinction - correct answer ✔The reduction of a learned response. (occurs
when the unconditioned stimulus no longer follows the condition)
Spontaneous Recovery - correct answer ✔During extinction training, the
reappearance of the conditioned responses after periods of rest.
Inhibition - correct answer ✔A feature of classical conditioning in which a
conditioned stimulus actually predicts the non-occurrence of an unconditioned
stimulus.
Generalization - correct answer ✔The tendency to respond to stimuli that are
similar to an original conditioned stimulus.
