ABA503 - Chapter 3: Reflexive Behavior andRespondent Conditioning
the regulation of the system by negative feedback loops. involves self-regulation to maintain an
internal environment in a stable or constant condition by means of multiple dynamic equilibrium
adjustments - ANS-homeostasis
as the intensity of an unconditioned stimulus (US) increases, so does the magnitude or size of
the unconditioned response (UR) - ANS-law of intensity magnitude
a conditioned stimulus (CS) that has been associated with an unconditioned stimulus (US)
blocks a subsequent CS-US association - ANS-blocking
a respondent conditioning procedure in which the conditioned stimulus (CS) is presented for a
brief period and after some time has elapsed the unconditioned stimulus (US) occurs -
ANS-trace conditioning
a respondent conditioning procedure in which the conditioned stimulus (CS) is presented for a
few seconds before the unconditioned stimulus (US) occur - ANS-delayed conditioning
this effect occurs when a compound stimulus is used as the conditioned stimulus (CS) in a
respondent conditioning experiment. the most salient property of the compound stimulus comes
to regulate exclusively the conditioned response - ANS-overshadowing
a respondent conditioning procedure in which the conditioned stimulus (CS) and unconditioned
stimulus (US) are presented at the same moment - ANS-simultaneous conditioning
involves the presentation of the conditioned stimulus without the unconditioned stimulus after
acquisition has occurred - ANS-respondent extinction
phylogenetic sequences of behavior, where an environmental stimulus sets off behavior that
produces stimuli that set of the next set of responses in the sequence; these behaviors produce
the next set of stimuli, and so on. presenting stimuli that prompt responses ordinarily occurring
in the middle part of the sequence will start the chain at that point rather that at the beginning -
ANS-reaction chain
when a specific flavor becomes a CS due to it having been paired with a US that elicited
sickness. the animal now shows avoidance of that flavor - ANS-conditioned taste aversion
, the onset of a conditioned aversive stimulus (CS^AVE) that suppresses ongoing operant
behavior. this occurs after several pairings of a conditioned stimulus (CS) with an aversive
unconditioned stimulus (US), such as an electric shock - ANS-conditioned suppression
behavior relations that are based on the genetic endowment of an organism and that are
present on the basis of species history; unlearned behavior - ANS-phylogenetic
as the intensity of an unconditioned stimulus (US) increased, the latency of the unconditioned
response (UR) decreases - ANS-law of latency
the behavioral flexibility of seemingly fixed action patterns. the major topographic features of
these reflex combinations may appear similar across individuals and situations, but there are
numerous idiosyncratic differences - ANS-modal action pattern
a procedure in which animals are first given repeated exposures to the unconditioned stimulus
(US) by itself and then a series of CS --> US pairings. compared with animals given pairings
with novel US, those familiar with the US show weaker and slower conditioning on the
acquisition test - ANS-US pre exposure effect
response elicited by conditioned stimulus - ANS-conditioned response
behavior that increases or decreases by the presentation of a conditioned stimulus (CS) that
precedes the conditioned response (CR) - ANS-respondent
an arbitrary stimulus that having been paired with an unconditioned stimulus now elicits a
response when the arbitrary stimulus is presented alone - ANS-conditioned stimulus
each organism has a unique life history that contributes to its behavior. the changes in behavior
are caused by the events that occur over the lifetime of an individual and builds on species
history - ANS-ontogenetic
a respondent procedure where the unconditioned stimulus (US) is presented before the
conditioned stimulus (CS) - ANS-backward conditioning
the function (graph) that relates values of the S^D to a measure of response strength -
ANS-generalization gradient
this occurs when an organism shows a conditioned response to one stimulus but not to the
other similar stimuli - ANS-respondent discrimination
two (or more) conditioned stimuli are presented together and acquire the capacity to elicit a
single conditioned response - ANS-compound stimuli
