PSYB45H3 Chapter Notes - Chapter 16: Classical Conditioning
Document Summary
Psyb45 chapter 16: transferring behaviour to new settings and. Making it last generality of behaviour change. Training situation: setting in which the behaviour is initially strengthened. Target situation: the setting in which we want the behaviour to occur. The term situation may refer to particular stimuli or to particular settings, or both. There are 4 main strategies for programming operant stimulus generalization: train in the target situation. First effort to program stimulus generalization make the final stages of the training situation similar to the target situation in as many ways as possible. Train in the target situation itself: very the training conditions. Develop the behaviour to specific stimuli that are present in the training settings, and then ensuring that those stimuli are in the target settings. A useful strategy for programming common stimuli is to bring the desired behaviour under the control of instructions/rules that an individual can rehearse in novel situations.
