Generalization and Discrimination: even though the response is emitted, animals can be taught to discriminate between situations. A pigeon will learn that they will get a pellet when they press a lever... when they press the lever and there is a red light no (negative discriminative stimulus [S-]), when there is a green light yes (positive disciminative stimulus [S+]). In difference to CS- and CS+, the S+ and S- tells the animal the impact of their behaviour: no point in acting (S-) or act now to get reward (S+) versus the CS+ and CS- which mean no matter what the reward comes or does no (it is indifferent to the animal's behaviour. Same can be stated for generalization... animals will respond to similar stimuli if they are similar to original
I believe it is Pavlov ^^ Close, but Pavlov is better associated with classical conditioning while I believe B.F. Skinner is most associated with operant conditioning.
These terms apply to classical conditioning but not to operant conditioning
1.) Generalization. Everyone has different hand writing. We may have never seen another person's handwriting, but we can still read it. 2) Discrimination. ex. The Dogs will only drool if they hear that specific bell. Forgetting> 1.) extinction: If you go to the dentist fr many times without experiencing pain, then you forget about it and lose anxiety.
A faulty generalization is a statement that's not true while a valid generalization is a true statement.
Generalization can be defined as a broad statement that is applicable to a group of people.
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.
Stimulus discrimination in operant conditioning refers to the ability to respond differently to similar stimuli based on specific cues or features present in the environment. In classical conditioning, stimulus discrimination involves learning to differentiate between two similar stimuli and responding differently to each based on the conditioning experience.
Generalization has occurred in operant conditioning when a behavior that has been reinforced in one context starts to be exhibited in different contexts and situations. This means that the individual is demonstrating the learned behavior beyond the original setting where it was reinforced.
Operant Conditioning is also called Skinner after B.F. Skinner who created the Skinner Box.
Involuntary conditioning is associated with classical conditioning, while voluntary conditioning is associated with operant conditioning. Classical conditioning involves learning by association between stimuli, while operant conditioning involves learning by reinforcement or punishment of behaviors.
Pavlov identified the five conditioning processes as acquisition, extinction, spontaneous recovery, generalization, and discrimination. These processes describe how learned behaviors are acquired, maintained, and may change over time.
An example of discrimination in operant conditioning in a classroom setting could be a teacher only providing positive reinforcement, such as praise or rewards, to students who raise their hands before speaking, while ignoring or reprimanding students who call out without raising their hands. This differential response to the behavior of raising hands versus calling out is an example of discrimination.
Operant conditioning was discovered by psychologist B.F. Skinner in the 1930s.
Yes! phobias are developed through classical conditioning and addictions through operant 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.
