Classical conditioning

Is a type of learning in which a stimulus acquires the capacity to evoke a response that was originally evoked by another stimulus.

Ivan pavlov

His subjects were dogs restrained by harness in a chamber. He would present meat powder to a dog and then collect the resulting saliva. In his research progressed, He noticed that dogs accustomed to the procedure would start salivating before the meat powder was presented. They would salivate in response to a clicking sound made by the device that was used to present the meat powder. He then paired the presentation of the meat powder with various stimuli. He used a simple auditory stimulus the presentation of the tone.

Ivan pavolv

He built a broad theory of learning that attempted to explain aspects of emotion, temperament, neuroses, and language.

Acquisition operant conditioning

-in operant conditioning refers to the initial stage 9; learning new patterns of responding

Extinction operant conditioning

refers to the gradual weakening and disappearance of a response tendency because the response is no longer followed by a reinforcer. This means that the experimenter stops delivering food when the rat presses the lever.

Schedule reinforcements

variable internal schedule
