Q

Kamin (1968)

A

his experiment contradicted the frequency principle

rats control vs block group

Block: 1-L+; 2-LT+; Test-T; Results-T no fear

Control: 1-n/a; 2-LT+; Test-T; Results-T fear

A

34
Q

theories of attention

A

classical conditioning focus on how much attention the learner pays to the CS

pay attention to the informative CS and not the uninformative CS

35
Q

CS preexposure effect

A

classical conditioning proceeds more slowly if a CS is repeatedly presented by itself before it is paired with the US

37
Q

comparator theories

A

animal compares the likelihood that the US will occur in the presence of the CS with the likelihood that the US will occur in the absence of the CS

39
Q

first-order conditioning

A

basic pairing of US with CS

supports S-S

41
Q

second-order conditioning

A

Q

contextual stimuli

A

the sights, sounds, and smells of the experimental chamber

45
Q

sensory preconditioning

A

two CS associations are paired

47
Q

occasion setting

A

conditioning, a stimulus that does not itself elicit a response, but its presence causes another stimulus to elicit a conditioned response.

For example, after presentation of a light, a tone might be followed by the delivery of food. In the absence of the light, the tone is not followed by food. If the tone is effective in eliciting salivation only after the light is presented, the light is designated as an occasion setter.

Q

taste aversion learning

A

violates the contiguity and frequency principles

eat food, get sick, no eat food

A

e.g. rats better at tasting sour than seeing blue vs quails better at seeing blue and also has a little tasting sour

57
Q

drug tolerance

A

when a drug is administered repeatedly, larger and larger doses may be needed to produce the same effect

59
Q

craving

A

desire to use a drug, usually caused by a conditioned compensatory response

60

61
Q

conditioned opponent theories

A

conditioned opponent responses involve the physiological effect of the body counteracting the drug

CS -> CR = counteraction

62
Q

conditioned opponent responses involve the physiological effect of the body counteracting the drug

A

conditioned opponent theories

CS -> CR = counteraction

63
Q

Five major physiological findings:

A

1) neural pathway for CR and UR are different
2) simple CR involves many different brain structures
3) different conditioning = different brain locals
4) different CRs involve different brain locals
5) individual neurons linked to acquisition phase of CR
