Document Summary

Learning-some experience that results in a relatively permanent change in the state of the learner. Habituation-a general process in which repeated or prolonged exposure to a stimulus results in a gradual reduction in responding. Classical conditioning-when a neutral stimulus evokes a response after being paired with a stimulus that naturally evokes a response. Unconditioned stimulus (us)-something that reliably produces a naturally occurring reaction in an organism. Unconditioned response (ur)-a reflexive reaction that is reliably elicited by an unconditioned stimulus. Conditioned stimulus (cs)-a stimulus that is initially neutral and produces no reliable response in an organism. Conditioned response (cr)-a reaction that resembles an unconditioned response but is produced by a conditioned stimulus. Acquisition-the phase of classical conditioning when the cs and the us are presented together. Second-order conditioning-conditioning where the us is a stimulus that acquired its ability to produce learning from an earlier procedure in which it was used as a cs.
