Document Summary
Learning: as the process of acquiring new and relatively enduring information or behaviours. Higher order conditioning: if the dog becomes conditioned to salivate at the sound of a bell, can the dog be conditioned to salivate when a light flashes by association it with the bell instead of with food: yes! The conditioned response can be transferred from the us to cs then from there to another cs: this is higher order conditioning: turning a ns into a cs by associating it with another. The ur now gets triggered by a cs: timing: for the association to be acquired, the neutral stimulus needs to repeatedly appear before the unconditioned stimulus (half a second before, extinction: refers to the diminishing of conditioned response. If the us stops appearing with the cs, the cr decreases: spontaneously recovery: after a rest period, and without any new learning trials, the reappearance of a previously extinguished cr.
