Document Summary
Come frequently, recency, arousal: consistency: information consistent with already established beliefs and values is, frequency: greater opportunity for transfer into the ltm since the stm more easily organized and integrated into the ltm encounters the item more frequently and also may facilitate automatic transfer without awareness, arousal: recall is enhanced if individual is aroused while learning. When rewards are terminated for performance of the target object, behaviors acquired from a continuous schedule of reinforcement are extinguished faster than behaviors acquired via an intermittent schedule: modeling facilitates acquisition of complicated behaviors, where the learning organism is shown someone else performing the target behavior and being rewarded, acquisition of complicated behaviors is facilitated by shaping, where simpler but similar behaviors are learned which successively approximate the target behavior, acquisition of complicated behaviors is facilitated by chaining, where the complex target behavior is broken down into simpler components and then.
