Learning
Classical conditioning
-
-
Habituation
The decline in the tendancy to respond to stimuli that have become familiar due to repeated exposure
Classical conditioning
-
A neutral stimulus is repeatedly paired with a stimulus that automatically elicts a particular response
-
-
-
Stimulus gneralisation
-
Generlisation gradients
Continuous stimulus dimernsions can produce generalisation gradients. stimulu closer to CS produce greater CR's
Stimulus discrimination
Occurs when an organism does not respond to stimuli that are simular to the stimulus used in training
Discrimination training
Stimulus A is associated with the US, and stimulus B is not. If the subject discriminates, the CR occurs only with A

-
Sensory preconditioning
Learning occurs in the absence of unconditionned response. Classical conditioning reveals the association already learnt between two events
Taste aversion learning
Associations between unconditioned stimulus and conditioned stimulus are more readily formed if they seem to belong together
-
Theoretical implications
- US-CS conditions are not arbitrary. Dpeends on biological contraints or predispositions. A simple temporal contiguity is non sufficient to produce conditioning
- Conditioned tasre aversions can occur after quite long delays between the CS and the UR. So, a close temporal contiguity is not always necessary for conditioning
Applied issues
The hungry cyotes (Gustavson et al., 1976)

Extinction
Time out
Not extinction - negative punishment (removing broad range ofpositive reinforcers). Brief, safe procedure but not without potential problems

Latent learning
Learning from experience when there appears no obvious reinforcement or punishment for the specific behaviour
