Learning Definition: a relatively permanent change in a organism’s behavior due to experience. Early work in modern psychology focused on overt behavior (i.e., observables) and was not concerned with what went on in the learner’s head.

Classical (Pavlovian) Conditioning Before Conditioning Food Unconditioned Stimulus Salivation Unconditioned Response elicits AND Bell Neutral Stimulus elicits NOTHING

Acquisition and Extinction Learning 09/15/99 Acquisition and Extinction (NS-US pairings) Figure 5.5 from: Kassin, S. (1998). Psychology, second edition. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall. Source: ©1999 Prentice Hall 8

Updating Pavlov Effect of cognitive processing? “Anabuse” Biological Predispositions acquired taste aversions (but not light)

Operant (Skinnerian) Conditioning How does this differ from Pavlovian? Pavlov = associating stimuli Skinner = associating behaviors and consequences “Law of Effect” rewarded behavior is more likely to recur punished behavior is less likely to recur

What if the person won’t do the desired behavior? Shaping: a procedure in which rewards gradually guide an animal’s behavior toward a desired behavior. (video)

Types of Reinforcers Positive Negative Primary Secondary presenting a stimulus Negative not the same as punishment removing a stimulus Primary innately satisfying Secondary satisfying by association w/ primary reinforcer

Reinforcement Schedules Continuous every time Partial sometimes, sometimes not Fixed-ratio - after set # of responses Variable-ratio - after variable # of response Fixed-interval after fixed period of time Variable-interval after variable period of time
