Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Learning A relatively permanent change in behavior that results from experience Habituation: The learning that occurs when repeated exposure to a stimulus decreases an organism’s responsiveness to the stimulus Types of learning Classical conditioning Operant conditioning Cognitive and social learning Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Classical Conditioning: Examples Sound of a dentist’s drill: sweaty palms Sight of significant other: smiling Smell of a certain beverage: nausea Noise of a can opener: cat comes running How does this happen? Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Classical Conditioning Discovered (accidentally) by Ivan Pavlov Components Unconditioned Stimulus (US) Unconditioned Response (UR) Conditioned Stimulus (CS) Conditioned Response (CR) Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Pavlov’s Observation Studied digestion in dogs Presented meat powder and measured salivation Dogs started salivating before food was presented Why? Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Pavlov’s Experiment: Phase 1 Food (US): salivation (UR) Reflexive response Tone: nothing Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Pavlov’s Experiment: Phase 2 CS is repeatedly paired with the US A tone is sounded before the food is presented Acquisition Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Pavlov’s Experiment: Phase 3 Eventually, the CS elicits a new CR. Classical conditioning is complete when hearing the tone by itself causes salivation. Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Classical Conditioning: Conditioned Emotional Response Avoidance learning Conditioned emotional response Phobias Little Albert Biological preparedness Contrapreparedness Easy to develop a snake phobia Hard to develop a car door phobia Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Classical Conditioning Extinction Spontaneous recovery Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Classical Conditioning Stimulus generalization Stimulus discrimination Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Dissecting Conditioning Learning to be afraid Information registers in the brain Amygdala reacts Hippocampus helps store associations with context Central nucleus of amygdala kicks in Other brain areas contribute Sets of neurons become linked Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Classical Conditioning Applied Drug overdoses Conditioned compensatory response Smoking: environmental cues Therapy: systematic desensitization Advertising: sex appeal Anticipatory nausea Conditioning and the immune system Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Types of Learning Classical conditioning Operant conditioning Cognitive and social learning Copyright © 2007 Allyn & Bacon Operant Conditioning: Examples Tantrums are punished: fewer tantrums Tantrums bring attention: more tantrums Slot machine pays out: gamble more Reward dog for sitting: dog is likely to sit How does this happen?
