Taylor Dumitru Unit 6: Learning Study Guide 1. Learning is a relatively permanent change in an organism’s behavior due to experience. Nature’s most important gift to us may be our adaptability—our capacity to learn new behaviors that enable us to cope with ever-changing experiences. 2. Pavlov explored the phenomenon we call classical conditioning‚ in which organisms learn to associate stimuli and thus anticipate events. This laid the foundation for John B. Watson’s behaviorism‚ which held that

Pavlovian stimulus-reinforcer relation in the three term contingency‚ and independent of the response-reinforcer relation (Nevin & Grace‚ 2000). General findings are that responses maintained on richer schedules of reinforcement are more resistant to change than those maintained on leaner schedules of reinforcement (Nevin & Grace‚ 2000). Resistance to change is often measured as responses in a particular session following disruption as proportion of an average of baseline‚ which accounts for differences in

Reinforcement: Presentation of the unconditioned stimulus immediately following the conditioned stimulus‚ such as giving an animal an electric shock immediately following the sounding of the bell. In operant or instrumental conditioning‚ the strengthening of a response when it leads to satisfaction‚ typically a reward of some kind. Reinforcement is said to be positive if its presentation strengthens a response and
