How is habituation related to classical conditioning?
Habituation is defined as becoming or making someone become accustomed to something. Classical conditioning is using habituation to pair two stimuli, such as in the famous case of Pavlov's dog, wherein the sound of a bell and meal time were associated.
How are generalization and discrimination related to classical conditioning?
Generalization occurs when an animal responds to a second stimulus similar to the original BS without prior training with the second stimulus. Discrimination is the ability to respond differently to different stimuli.These two processes are related to classical conditioning because associations are being made between a neutral stimulus and an unconditioned stimulus, thus, allowing the subjects to learn.
When does trace conditioning occur?
Trace conditioning occurs when there is a temporal gap between the conditioned stimulus (CS) and the unconditioned stimulus (US), meaning the CS ends before the US is presented. This type of conditioning relies on short-term memory and typically involves a brief delay between the end of the CS and the onset of the US.
How are stimulus and response related?
our senses will detect stimulus and send impulse into the integrating centre(brain) to interpret. the brain will produce appropriate response toward the stimulus to the effector. e.g when Telephone ring, the ears will detect the stimulus(sound) and the brain will produce the response to pick up the phone (copy from Yahoo answers)
How are the UCR and CR related?
In "classical" or "respondent" conditioning (as observed by Pavlov), a "conditioned response" (CR) is learned when a "conditioned stimulus" (CS) is presented before and/or during the presence of an "unconditioned stimulus" (UCS). The CR is similar to the "unconditioned response" (UCR) in that the same physiological effectors are recruited to respond. For example, when Pavlov rang a bell (CS) before introducing meat powder (UCS) in a dog's mouth, the salivation (UCR) that normally begins the dog's digestion processes came under the control of the bell. This learned salivation in response to the bell (no longer involving digestion at all) is the conditioned response (CR). Both the UCR and the CR involve the salivary glands. Interestingly, the UCR of salivation produces saliva that is chemically distinct from that of the CR of salivation.
How are a stimulus and a response related?
They are directly related. Homeostasis is an environments ability to maintain stbility in a regular cycle, but when something new is introduced, the environment is able to respond to a new occurance, or stimulus, and responds in order to survive and return to maintaining a normal cycle. Without response to a new stimulus, environments would be unable to maintain homeostasis and would die out!
What is superstitious conditioning?
Superstitious Conditioning is when the organism is rewarded (or removal of punishment) while performing a response, and even though the response and reward aren't related, the subject associates the two together. Example: You hurt your thumb, and keep swearing until the pain goes away. The pain eventually goes away, and you assume it was because of your swearing, and consequently swear every time you're hurt to relieve pain. The swearing actually did absolutely nothing, but you 'superstitiously' associate the two.
Which term does not belong excitability response to a stimulus contractility action potential?
The term that does not belong is "action potential." While excitability, response to a stimulus, and contractility are all related to muscle function and the ability of muscle fibers to react to stimuli, an action potential refers specifically to the electrical impulse that triggers these processes.
Pets who learn that the sound of an electric can opener signals the arrival of their food illustrate?
It's called a Pavlovian response, or Pavlovian conditioning (named for the man who discovered it, a guy named Ivan Pavlov). See the Related Links below for more information.
What is classical condition?
Classical conditioning was started by Ivan Pavlov, a psychologist. He used dogs to prove that a being can be conditioned to do something, this means that they learn to do something when one things occurs. In his dogs, he gave the dogs meat powder every time a bell was rung. In turn, the dogs would salivate. After repeating this for a few times, the dogs would salivate at the sound of a bell without the meat powder. The dogs, like any other creature, were unintentionally learning to salivate at the sound of a bell.Classical conditioning is a type of learning related to Pavlov (a psychologist) and one of the common examples of classical conditioning is where a bell is rang and then the dog is given food and this process is repeated several times. After a while, the dog learns to assume that a ringing bell means food is coming and so the dog begins salivating to simply the sound of the bell expecting food. Classical conditioning is defined as a learning process where two stimuli are repeatedly paired and eventually a response originally elicited by the just the second stimuli is elicited beforehand by the first stimuli.
What are the key elements in operant conditioning?
Key elements in operant conditioning include reinforcement (positive or negative) and punishment, shaping behavior through reinforcement schedules, and the concept of extinction when the learned behavior is no longer reinforced. Additionally, operant conditioning involves the principles of stimulus control, generalization, and discrimination.
