Document Summary

Chanaps: learning relatively durable change in behavior or knowledge that is due to experience. One of the most fundamental concepts in psych. a. Pavlov theorized that acquisition of a conditioned response depended on stimulus contiguity (occur in the same time and space): contiguity alone, however, does not produce conditioning. Chanaps: stimulus that are novel, unusual, or especially intense have more potential to become more cs"s than routine stimuli, timing of stimulus presentation is also important. Simultaneous conditioning the cs and ucs begin and end together. i: short delayed conditioning cs begins just before the ucs and stops at the same time as the ucs. Operant conditioning: thorndike"s law of effect, operant conditioning was created by skinner, operant conditioning form of learning in which responses come to be controlled by their consequences. aka. F: secondary/conditioned reinforcers events that acquire reinforcing qualities by being associated with primary reinforcers.
