Document Summary
Association between uncontrollable response and neutral stimulus. Unconditional stimulus (us, meat powder) unconditioned response (ur, salivation) Neutral stimulus (bell) no unconditioned response (no salivation) Neutral stimulus (bell) + unconditioned stimulus (us, meat powder) unconditioned response (ur, salivation) Conditioned stimulus (cs, bell) conditioned response (cr, salivation) Everytime jim turns off his computer, he gives dwight a mint. Dwight becomes used to hearing the bell and getting a mint. When jim does not give him a mint, his mouth salivates. Cs the bell on the computer. Negative reinforcement (take away chores, cancel quizzes) Reinforcement after a fixed interval of time. Ex. paycheck (you know every two weeks, you will get a paycheck) Reinforcement after a variable interval of time. Reinforcement administered after a fixed number of responses. Ex. punched reward cards at coffee shops. Reinforcement administered after a random number of responses. Simple reinforcement schedules produce characteristic response patterns. Ratio schedules produce more responses than do interval schedules.
