5 Written Questions

1. a type of learning that involved stimulus response connections, in which the response is conditional on the stimulus
2. stimuli, such as food or warmth that have reinforcement value without learning
3. a type of learning in which a neutral stimulus comes to elicit an unconditioned response when that neutral stimulus is repreatedly paired with a stimulus that normally causes and unconditioned response
4. stimuli that increase the probability of a response because of their association with a primary reinforcer
5. an unpleasent stimulus that increases the frequency of behvaior when it is removed

5 True/False Questions

1. systematic desensitization → a pleasent relaxed state is associated with gradually increasing anxiety triggering stimuli (treat phobias)

   True        False

2. discrimination → the ability to distinguish the conditioned stimulus from other stimuli that are similar

   True        False

3. operant conditioning → learning that is strenghthened when behavior is followed by positive reinforcement

   True        False

4. continous reinforcement → a type of conditioned learning in which only some of the respones are reinforced

   True        False

5. counterconditioning → a type of learning that involved stimulus response connections, in which the response is conditional on the stimulus

   True        False
