Document Summary
Key relationship is response and outcome: the response relationship maintains the behavior, )f the relation doesn"t matter you do not have instrumental learning, criteria. The behavioral modification depends on a form of neural plasticity. The modification depends on the organism"s experiential history. 3. (a) the modification outlasts (extends beyond) the environmental contingencies used to induce it. (b) the experience has a lasting effect on performance. 4) imposing a temporal relationship between a response and an outcome alters the response: ways of studying instrumental behavior. 2 kinds of relationships given the forms or relationship types often than not: appetitive- outcomes they like (food, drugs, etc, aversive- outcomes the rat doesn"t like (cid:523)shock more. )f you respond you don"t get the reinforcement. Pressing a bar might produce the food pellet: performing the response precludes the reinforcement, response produces the reinforce. 4 kinds of paradigms/ schedules: reward/instrumental learning. Observe an increase in responding: omission schedule.
