Document Summary
Principles: procedures at their simplest form that have a consistent effect. Pavlovian conditioning = classical conditioning = respondent conditioning. Unconditioned reflex: when a stimulus automatically brings out a response without any. Respondent behaviors: behaviors that seem to be reflexive, elicited by prior stimuli and not affected by their consequences; influenced by respondent conditioning prior experience or learning (inborn/hardwired) Unconditioned stimulus (us): a stimulus that elicits a response without prior learning. Unconditioned response (ur): a response caused by an unconditioned stimulus. Neutral stimulus (ns): a stimulus that does not cause any particular effect. Respondent conditioning: demonstrates that when a ns is followed closely in time with a us that elicits a ur, then the ns will over time begin to elicit the same response caused by the us. Conditioned reflex/response (cr): a stimulus-response relationship where a stimulus elicits a response due to previous respondent conditioning.
