Flashcards in Lecture 2: Pos Rft & Extinction Deck (27):
1
Learning the relationship between an action and a response
Associative learning
2
How is classical conditioning different from instrumental conditioning?
CC is paired with a different stimulus
3
Refers to a function as an event
Reinforcement
4
Positive contingency: response results in outcome: reward
Appetitive. Response increases
5
Positive contingency: response results in outcome: punishment
Aversive. Response decreases
6
Negative contingency: response prevents outcome: omission
Appetitive. Response decreases
7
Negative contingency: response prevents outcome: negative Rft (e.g. Avoidance)
Aversive. Response increases
8
Refers to a situation in which a stimulus reinforcers a behavior after it has been associated with a primary reinforcer whereas primary reinforcers occurs naturally and do not need to be learned
Secondary Rft
9
Example of __________ reinforcement includes waters food, sleep, and air
Primary Rft
10
An example of ___________ reinforcement is money
Secondary Rft
11
What are the 2 factors that affect instrumental conditioning?
1. Temporal contiguity
2. Contingency
12
Small/ no interval produces stronger learning in all cases of instrumental and classical conditioning
Temporal contiguity
13
Statistical relationship between a response and a reinforcer
Contingency
14
Instrumental conditioning is also known as
Operant conditioning
15
Reinforces a behavior to achieve a certain goal
Shaping
16
Complex behavior can be thought as a simple response. What involves shaping a sequence of responses. e.g. Language acquisition.
Response chaining
17
Involves secondary reinforcement, partial reinforcement, desirable for practical reasons
Schedules of Rft
18
Mean Rft is derived once every 5 responses
Fixed-Ratio
19
Mean Rft is delivered on average every 5 responses
Variable-Ratio
20
Mean Rft delivered on the first response after 5 seconds has elapsed since last Rft
Fixed-Interval
21
Rft delivered on the first response after a variable time has elapsed since last Rft
Variable-Interval
22
Elicits rapid responding
Ratio schedules
23
Post Rft pause
Fixed Ratio
24
You get rapid responding
Variable Ratio
25
Slower behavior
Fixed and Variable interval
26
There's a pattern (does not respond that much until it reaches a certain point)
Fixed Interval
