The function (graph) that relates values of the SD to a measure of response strength -
ANS-Generalization Gradient
Two (or more) conditioned stimuli are presented together and acquire the capacity to elicit a
single
conditioned response - ANS-Compound Stimuli
The symbol S in the Rescorla-Wagner equation is a constant that varies between 0 and 1. The
greater the value of the S coefficient makes the associative strength of the CS rise more quickly
to its maximum. - ANS-Salience
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
A conditioned stimulus (CS) that has been associated with an unconditioned stimulus (US)
blocks a subsequent CS-US association. - ANS-Blocking
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
Phylogenetic sequences of behavior, where an environmental stimulus sets off behavior that
produces stimuli that set off 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 an US that elicited
sickness. The animal now shows avoidance of that flavor. - ANS-Conditioned Taste Aversion
A respondent conditioning procedure in which the conditioned stimulus (CS) and unconditioned
stimulus (US) are presented at the same moment - ANS-Simultaneous Conditioning
When an unconditioned stimulus (US) repeatedly elicits an unconditioned response (UR). The
frequent presentation of the US produces a gradual decline in the magnitude of the UR. When
the UR is repeatedly elicited it may eventually fail to occur at all - ANS-Habituation
