Document Summary

Process by which experiences change our nervous system and behavior. Perceptual learning learning to categorize a particular stimulus. Stimulus-response learning-- learning to automatically make a particular. Motor learning learning to make a new response. Relational learning response in the presence of a particular stimulus. Ability to learn to recognize stimuli that have been perceived before. Ability to recognize and categorize objects and situations. Every sensory system is capable of this. Accomplished by changes in sensory association cortex. Learning to make a new response by the establishment of changes in motor. Need sensory input to guide motor learning. Ability to learn to perform a particular behavior when a particular stimulus is present. Involves establishment of connections btwn perception and movement. Form of learning where a neutral stimulus gains importance by its association with a non-neutral stimulus. Response that occurs with no training (occurs unconditionally) Stimulus that is paired with the us. After training the cs evokes the conditional response (cr)
