Q

Modern educational psychology

17
Q

When a response is followed by satisfaction that response is more likely to occur the next time the stimulus is present

A

Law of Effect

18
Q

Developed operant conditioning

19
Q

Adding a positive. The frequency of a response increases because it is followed by a rewarding stimulus

A

Positive reinforcement

20
Q

Removing a negative. The frequency of a response increases because it is followed by the removal of an unpleasant stimulus

A

Negative reinforcement

21
Q

Adding a negative. An unpleasant stimulus following a behavior decreases the likelihood that behavior will occur again

22
Q

Removing a positive. The removal of a positive stimulus after a behavior decreases the likelihood that behavior will occur again

A

Negative Punishment

23
Q

The process of rewarding successive approximation of the desired behavior

24
Q

Learning is more efficient under immediate other than delayed consequences

25
Reinforcement is given after a fixed number of responses
Fixed ratio
26
Reinforcement is given after a variable number of responses ex. Slot machines
Variable ratio
27
Reinforcement is given the first response after the fixed time has elapsed ex. Paychecks,pain medicine button
Fixed interval
28
Reinforcement is given a fixed variable period of time
Variable interval
29
A condition in which a person suffers from a sense of powerlessness a rising from a traumatic event or persistent failure to succeed
Learned helplessness
30
Occurs when a person observes and imitates someone’s behavior. Imitation/modeling
Observational learning
31
Bobo doll experiment. Observational learning
Albert Bandura
32
Learning from seeing others being rewarded from the behavior
Vicarious reward
33
Learning from seeing others being punished for their behavior
Vicarious punishment
34
Learning when the answer comes naturally
Insight learning
35
Developed insight learning
Wolfgang Koehler
