AP PSYCHOLOGY LEARNING REVIEW Associative Learning: Learning that certain events occur together the events may be two stimuli (as in classical conditioning) or a response and its consequences (as in operant conditioning). Ex.) Two related events: Stimulus 1: Lightening + Stimulus 2: Thunder Result after repetition: Stimulus: We see lightening = Response: We wince, anticipating thunder Classical Conditioning: A type of learning in which an organism comes to associate stimuli. A neutral stimulus (NS) that signals an unconditioned stimulus (US) begins to produce a response that anticipates and prepares for the unconditioned stimulus. *Ivan Pavlov created a classical conditioning experiment where dogs learned to salivate when they heard a bell. Neutral Stimulus- a stimulus which initially produces no specific response other than focusing attention (same as the CS) Unconditioned Stimulus- a stimulus that unconditionally, naturally, and automatically triggers a response Unconditioned Response- the unlearned, naturally occurring response to the unconditioned stimulus EX.) Salvation when food is in mouth Conditioned Stimulus- an originally, irrelevant stimulus that after association with an unconditioned stimulus, comes to trigger a conditioned response (same as the NS) Conditioned Response- the learned response to a previously neutral (but now conditioned) stimulus Formula: NS → nothing NS + UCS → UCR CS → CR Ex.) A man has a fear of snakes. Whenever this man is given a Dr. Pepper, he is shown a snake immediately after. After, the man will begin to tremble with fear as soon as he sees a Dr. Pepper. NS= Dr. Pepper UCS= Snake CS= Dr. Pepper UCR= fear CR=fear Acquisition- learning begins with an association between a CS and a UCS In operant conditioning: the rate of a reinforced response increases or decreases, either way one learns. Ex.) You go to work to get paid Rat in the Skinner box presses lever for food Extinction- the process of unlearning a behavior (when CS no longer causes the CR) Generalization- the tendency to respond to a similar CS Ex.) Child is praised for saying “doggie” to a dog then says “doggie “to a horse CAN! Tan, band…. (IN CLASS) Discrimination- when the subject is trained to tell the difference between various stimuli Spontaneous Recovery- where a previously extinguished response returns after a rest interval John B. Watson: Little Albert experiment He classically conditioned the baby to fear white rats. The baby was already afraid of loud noises so Watson conditioned him to fear white rats by pairing the loud noise with the white rats. Operant Conditioning: a type of learning in which behavior is strengthened if followed by a reinforcer or diminished if lowered by a punisher. Shaping: rewarding successive approximations of the desired behavior Ex.) Getting a dog to roll over or marble experiment in cup (IN CLASS) Skinner’s Box: Where rats were conditioned to press a lever because their result was getting food. Reinforcement: Any event that strengthens or increases the frequency of a preceding response. Positive Reinforcement: Strengthens a response by presenting a typically pleasurable stimulus after a response. Ex.) Food for hungry animals, attention, money Negative Reinforcement: Strengthens a response by reducing or removing an undesirable stimulus. Ex.) Taking aspirin to relieve a headache Pushing the snooze button to silence the annoying alarm Primary Reinforcer: An innately reinforcing stimulus, such as one that satisfies a biological need Ex.) Getting food when hungry or being relieved of electric shock Conditioned (Secondary) Reinforcer: a stimulus that gains its reinforcing power through its association with a primary reinforcer. Ex.) Money, good grades a pleasant tone of voice, a word of praise Continuous Reinforcement: Reinforcing the desired response every time it occurs. Ex.) When a dependable candy machine fails to deliver a chocolate bar twice in a row, we stop putting money into it. Fixed Ratio: Reinforce behavior after a set number of responses. Ex.) For every 30 pieces you get paid Variable Ratio: Provide reinforcer after an unpredictable number of responses Ex.) Slot machines Fixed Interval: Reinforce the first response after a fixed time period Ex.) People checking more frequently or the mail as the delivery time approaches Variable Interval: Reinforce the first response after varying time intervals Ex.) “You’ve Got Mail” that finally rewards persistence in rechecking for email Punishment: an event that decreases the behavior that if follows Ex.) The rat that is shocked after touching a forbidden object Law of Effect: Rewarded behavior is likely to occur! E.L Thorndike: Cat in the puzzle box experiment Observational Learning: Learning by observing others Ex.) Modeling: The process of observing and imitating a specific behavior Albert Bandura: Created Modeling-Bobo doll study Showed a film in which a women was beating up a Bobo doll and being aggressive. He then showed it to a group of children. After the children were shown imitating the actions and aggressive behavior when playing with the Bobo doll. Latent Learning: Learning that occurs but is not apparent until there is an incentive to demonstrate it. Ex.) Abusive parent, you don’t know you learned it, until you’re put into that situation Cognitive Map: A mental representation of the layout of one’s environment Ex.) After exploring a maze, rats act as if they have learned a cognitive map of it. Insight Learning: Wolfgang Kohler and his chimpanzees Some animals learn through the “ah ha” experience Intrinsic motivation: A desire to perform a behavior due to promised rewards or threats or punishment. Ex.) Intrinsically motivated people work and play in search of enjoyment, interest, selfexpression, or challenge. Participating in a sport because you find the activity enjoyable Solving a word puzzle because you find the challenge fun and interesting Playing a game because you find it exciting Extrinsic motivation: a desire to perform a behavior due to promised rewards or threats of punishment. Ex.) Studying because you want to get a good grade Cleaning your room to avoid being reprimanded by your parents Participating in a sport in order to win awards Competing in a contest in order to win a scholarship
