PSY397H5 Lecture Notes - Lecture 3: Habituation, Carol Barnes, Operant Conditioning Chamber
Document Summary
Most test material will be stuff covered in lecture; anything in textbook not in lecture will not be testable; Tone cue (cs); will be associated with ucs which is the shock; just before tone cue ends the shock is delivered; Chamber itself; little contiguity with the shock; no clear temporal association; the context is always there; there is not a lot of contingency between context and shock because temporal order of these cues is a bit complicated; Very little training required for this association to form; After training two main things that scientists test: So why is type a training better than type b? (without the tone cue) In context b, they might just be remembering the shock; this test will not be able to differentiate with ucs and cs learning; C will not be able to dissociate associative from non-associative.
