Reflex: _____
Relation between antecedent stimulus and reflex response
Unconditioned reflex is the unlearned relation between: _____
Antecedent stimulus and innate response
Unconditioned stimulus is an: _____
Antecedent stimulus that elicits reflex response without prior learning
Unconditioned response is an: _____
Involuntary response elicited by US
Respondent conditioning: _____
Pairing neutral stimulus with US or CS
Contingent presentation of 2 stimuli at nearly the same time: _____
S-S pairing
Neutral stimulus: _____
Stimulus with no eliciting effect on the response
Conditioned stimulus is a : _____
Stimulus that elicits reflex response due to prior learning
Conditioned response is a: _____
Learned involuntary response elicited by CS
Conditioned reflex is the learned relation between: _____
Once neutral stimulus and involuntary response
Temporal contiguity: _____
Nearness of events in time
One stimulus (S) dependent upon another stimulus (S): _____
S-S contingency
Respondent extinction: _____
Conditioned reflex weakened by unpairing CS and US
Respondent conditioning results in: _____
New reflex relation
Respondent spontaneous recovery: _____
Sudden reappearance of previously extinguished conditioned reflex
Respondent stimulus generalization: _____
Spread of the effects of respondent conditioning to other stimuli
Higher-order conditioning: _____
Neutral stimulus paired with previously conditioned stimulus, not a US
Habituation:
A temporary reduction in a reflex response due to repeated presentations of the eliciting stimulus (US/CS) within a short period of time
Potentiation:
A temporary increase in some dimension or intensity of a reflex response due to repeated presentations of an eliciting stimulus within a short period of time
Sensitization:
The tendency of a (different) stimulus to elicit a reflex response following the elicitation of that response by a different stimulus
Adaptation:
Prolonged exposure to a stimulus response frequency or magnitude reduced
S-R relation: _____
Reflex
