Document Summary
Continous reinforcement: needed during initial training, susceptible to satiation, susceptible to extinction, cost of food. When needs are constant we find simple nervous systems. When needs change , they"re more complex nervous systems. Two variables involved in defining the critical period in imprinting. Learning relatively permanent associated with experience and practice, based off of past behavior and the consequences. Stimulus discrimination a discriminative stimulus signals the availability of a reward or the presence of a predator. Fixed action pattern fixed response the same in all members of species that is unlearned behavior acts, unchangeable salutatory conduction allows the ap to jump from node to node. Displacement during an inappropriate fixed action pattern in response to a sign stimulus blockage of the usual fixed action pattern , Rse triggers atypical behavior taste aversion: only one strong trial, specific aversion to the taste and smell delay of effects. Orienting reaction reflexive orientation to a new stimulus ; may be threat or reinforcement.
