42

45
Q

What 4 things affect animal behavior?

A

Experience and learning
Physiology

46
Q

What factors can we influence in animal behavior?

A
  • Pet selection
  • Pet acquisition
  • Pet socialization and training
  • Pet health care
  • Behavior intervention techniques
47
Q

What are the two main methods of learning (conditioning)

A

Classical & Operant

48
Q

What is classical conditioning?

A

The pairing of something which has no meaning with something

that has inherent meaning *forms an association

49
Q

What is operant conditioning?

A

Animal learns behavior on environment. Learns from the consequences (good or bad)

50
Q

What types of operant conditioning should we do?

A

positive reinforcement & negative punishment

51
Q

What is avoidance conditioning?

A

When a behavior can prevent a negative stimulus from occurring
that behavior will increase in frequency (EX: growling to avoid nail trim)

52
Q

What is extinction?

A

Decrease of frequency and intensity of an operantly conditioned
response after reinforcement is no longer provided (If there’s no reason to perform a behavior, thy won’t)

53
Q

What is an extinction burst?

A

Animal tries harder before they give up

54
Q

What is habituation?

A

• Decrease in response due to repeated presentation of a known
stimulus
• Getting used to stimulus in an environment (noises movements etc.)
Can also decrease reaction to stimulus which has not formed an associated meaning (“Name chanting)

55
Q

What is counter conditioning?

A

• Changes a previous conditioned emotional response (CER)
• Takes one stimulus which is associated with fear/aggression and
changing the association (CER) to positive

56
Q

What is response substitution?

A

Changing an inappropriate response to a stimulus with an

appropriate response to the same stimulus (ex: jumps on ppl, teach sit)

57
Q

What is Systematic Desensitization

A

Reduces the sensitivity to a certain stimulus

58
Q

What is ignoring?

A

Making an owner-conditioned or staff-conditioned behavior go into extinction by ignoring the behavior
