Document Summary

Association: our minds naturally connect events that occur in sequence. Stimulus: any event or situation that evoke a response. Associative learning: learning that certain events occur together. It could be two stimuli (classical conditioning) or a response and its consequence (operant conditioning) Operant conditioning/ behavior: we learn to associate an action and its consequence, we learn to repeat acts followed by good result and avoid acts followed by bad result. Cognitive learning: we acquire mental information that guides our behavior, observational learning. Dog experiment: there is a neutral stimulus (the bell), which by itself will not produce a response, like salivation. There"s also a non-neutral or unconditioned stimulus (the food), which will produce an unconditioned response (salivation). Acquisition: first stage of classical conditioning, when object learn the link between the ns and us. Extinction: a drop-off in responses when a cs(bell) no longer signals an upcoming us (food)
