Document Summary
Acquisition- an increase in the probability that a conditioned stimulus will elicit a conditioned response. Habituation- a decline in response to stimuli that have become familiar through repeated exposure. Ex: poking a sea slug until it no longer retreats into its shell. Ex: changing the pitch of a conditioned stimulus sound, the further it gets from the original pitch the weaker the conditioned response gets. Extinction- present conditioned stimulus that produces conditioned response, but you stop producing the unconditioned stimulus. Ex: if pavlov kept ringing bell but did not give food following the bell then dogs would no longer salivate to the sound of the bell. Reinstatement- after period of time the conditioned stimulus is presented again and the subject performs the conditioned response once again. Ex: extra money coming out of atm, then stopping for a time, then occurring again.
