Document Summary
Inborn paterns of behaviour elicited by environmental simuli. A relaively permanent change in behaviour or the capacity for behaviour that occurs due to experience. Change the magnitude of responses to a kind of simulus. Learning by watching the acions and experience of another. Discovered laws of learning that apply to virtually all organisms. Treated organism tabula rasa: born blank, and you learn. Explained learning solely in terms of directly observable events. Occurs when we form connecions among simuli and/or behaviours. Based on internal responses to naturally occurring simuli. Ucs (sugar) ucr (smile, lip licking: ucr response is insincive. The simulus hat naturally and reliable evokes a response, not learned. The response that is naturally and reliably elicited by the uncondiioned simulus, unlearned response. A simulus that does not iniially elicit the uncondiioned response. A simulus that was once neutral but, through associaion with the ucs, now elicits a response.
