Define Learning
Learning is a relatively permanent change in behavior as a result of experience.
![Page 4: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Classical Conditioning
In classical conditioning(Learning), we learn to associate two stimuli and anticipate events.
![Page 5: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Cont…. Respondents: Automatic responses elicited by
specific stimuli. Neutral stimulus: stimulus not connected to a
response. Unconditioned stimulus: stimulus that
automatically produces an emotional or physiological response.
Unconditioned Response: Naturally occurringemotional or physiological response.
![Page 6: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Cont….. Conditioned Stimulus: Stimulus that evokes an
emotional or physiological response after conditioning.
Conditioned Response: Learned response to a previously neutral stimulus.
Generalisation: Responding in the same way to similar stimuli.
Discrimination:Responding differently to similar but not identical stimuli.
Extinction: Gradual disappearence of a learned response.

For example, we learn that a flash of lightening signals an impending crack of thunder, so we start to brace ourselves when lightening flashes nearby.

Operant Conditioning In operant conditioning, we
learn to associate a response and its consequence, and we repeat acts followed by rewards, and avoid acts followed by punishment.
![Page 10: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
For example, we learn that when we get good grades, we get money, so we continue to get good grades. Or, if we don’t get good grades, we lose privileges. To avoid losing privileges, we get good grades.
![Page 11: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Social/Vicarious/Observational Learning
In social learning (or observational learning), we learn from other’s experiences and examples.
![Page 12: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
For example, chimpanzees sometimes learn behaviors merely by observing others perform them. If one animal watches another learn to solve a puzzle that gains a food reward, the observing animal may perform the trick as well, and even more quickly.
![Page 13: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Classical Conditioning
![Page 14: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Classical Conditioning Ivan Pavlov - Russian;
Medical doctor who spent two decades studying the digestive system. Nobel Prize in 1904. Studied learning for the next three decades, by “accident”.
![Page 15: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Classical Conditioning After studying salivary secretion in dogs, he
knew that when he put food in a dog’s mouth the animal would invariably salivate. He also began to notice that when he worked with the same dog repeatedly, the dog began salivating to stimuli associated with food – the sight of food, the food dish, the mere presence of the person bringing the food, even the sound of oncoming footsteps in anticipation of the food
![Page 16: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Classical Conditioning Pavlov’s Experiment: Through experimentation, Pavlov asked: If
a neutral stimulus (something the dog could see or hear) regularly signaled the arrival of food, would the dog associate the two stimuli (the food and the neutral stimuli)? If so, would the dog begin to salivate to the neutral stimulus in anticipation of the food?
![Page 17: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
From Pavlov’s research:

Classical Conditioning
Unconditioned StimulusA stimulus that naturally
and automatically triggers a response
![Page 19: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Classical ConditioningUnconditioned Response
The unlearned, naturally occurring response to the unconditioned stimulus
![Page 20: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Classical Conditioning
For example:For Pavlov, the UCS was
food and the UCR was the dog’s salivation
![Page 21: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Classical Conditioning Pavlov’s Experiment (continued): Just before placing food in the dog’s
mouth to produce salivation, Pavlov sounded a tone. After several pairings of tone and food, the dog began to salivate to the tone alone, in anticipation of the food.
![Page 22: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Classical Conditioning Conditioned Stimulus
An originally irrelevant stimulus that, after association with and unconditioned stimulus, comes to trigger a conditioned response
![Page 23: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Classical ConditioningConditioned Response
The learned response to a previously neutral conditioned stimulus
![Page 24: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Classical Conditioning For example:
For Pavlov, the previously neutral stimulus was the tone. During conditioning, the tone was paired with the food (UCS). After conditioning, the tone, when presented alone, produced salivation in the dog. The tone is now considered the CS, and the dog’s salivation to the tone alone is now considered the CR.
![Page 25: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

1. While George was having a cavity filled by his dentist, the drill hit a nerve that had not been dulled by anesthetic, a couple of times. Each time he cringed in pain. George now gets anxious each time he sees the dentist.
What is the: Unconditioned stimulus: ____________________ Unconditioned response: ____________________ Conditioned stimulus: ____________________ Conditioned response: ____________________
![Page 28: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
You ride a roller coaster and get sick afterward. Now, whenever you are near a roller coaster you feel queasy.
![Page 29: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Your relationship is going badly and your significant other has yelled at you without warning several times. You now feel tense and fearful any time that you are around him or her.
![Page 30: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Four Major Conditioning Processes
Generalization Discrimination Extinction Spontaneous Recovery
![Page 31: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Acquisition The initial stage in classical
conditioning The phase associating a neutral
stimulus with an unconditioned stimulus so that the neutral stimulus comes to elicit a conditioned response
![Page 32: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Acquisition Findings:
The time between presenting the neutral stimulus and the unconditioned stimulus needs to be short. For most species and procedures, about ½ second works best.
Conditioning is more likely to occur if the conditioned stimulus is presented before the unconditioned stimulus
![Page 33: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Generalization The tendency, once a response has been
conditioned, for stimuli similar to the conditioned stimulus to elicit similar responses IE. A dog responding to a bell tone may
also respond to a similar sounding door bell.
![Page 34: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Discrimination The learned ability to distinguish
between a conditioned stimulus and other stimuli that do not signal an unconditioned response IE. A child is bitten by a dog, and only
fears that dog. Other dogs don’t illicit an automatic fear response.
![Page 35: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Extinction The diminishing of a conditioned
response when an unconditioned stimulus no longer follows a conditioned stimulus If the food no longer follows the bell tone,
eventually the dog will no longer associate the bell tone with food and will stop salivating.
![Page 36: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Spontaneous Recovery The reappearance, after a rest period,
of an extinguished conditioned response.
The conditioned response continues to get weaker after less pairings of the CS and the UCS, and after more and more rest periods
![Page 37: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Classical Conditioning – Extra Little Albert Experiment – Fear Conditioning
An 11-month infant named Albert feared loud noises, but not white rats. In the experiment, when Albert was presented with a white rat and reached out to touch it, a hammer was struck on a steel beam behind his head. After seven repetitions of seeing the rat and then hearing the frightening noise, Albert burst into tears at the mere sight of the rat.
![Page 38: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Classical Conditioning - Extra Five days after the testing, Albert
showed generalization of his conditioned response by reacting with fear to a rabbit, a dog, and a sealskin coat.
![Page 39: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
The Effect of motives: Motive effects the conditioned response.The dog was hungry so associated bell with food.
Time factor between two stimuli: there should be less gap in time between two stimuli to evoke a conditioned response and percieve the relation between two stimuli.
Repetition of the stimuli:This is done for association of neutral stimulus with UCS
![Page 40: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Operant Conditioning
![Page 41: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Operant: voluntary behaviour emitted by an organism
Operant conditioning : learning in which voluntary behaviour is strenthened or weakened by antecedents(EVENTS BEFORE ACTION) or consequences(EVENTS AFTER ACTION)
![Page 42: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Type of learning in which
behavior is strengthened if followed by a reinforcer, or diminished if followed by a punisher
![Page 43: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Operant Conditioning B.F. Skinner’s Experiments:
Based on Edward Thorndike’s LAW OF EFFECT – states that rewarded behavior is likely to recur
Experiments conducted with animals in an operant chamber (Skinner Box) – a soundproof box, with a bar or key that an animal presses or pecks to release a reward of food or water
![Page 44: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
![Page 45: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
![Page 46: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Shaping – while conditioning
an animal to perform certain behaviors, reinforcers are successively given only as the subject gets closer to the ultimate behavior goal
![Page 47: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
IE. If the purpose of putting a rat in a maze is to teach it to get from Point A to Point B while following a certain path, then every time the rat makes a turn towards the right path, a reward should be given. If it makes a turn towards the wrong path, NO reward is given.
![Page 48: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
![Page 49: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Operant Conditioning If we can shape animals to
respond to one stimulus and not to another, then obviously they can perceive the differences.
![Page 50: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
IE. Some pigeons have been trained to be able to distinguish between Bach and Stravinsky.
IE. If the goal of a teacher is to get all students to strive for 100% accuracy on their spelling tests, then every time a student improves on successive spelling tests they should be rewarded. NOT just reward those that get a 100%.
![Page 51: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
![Page 52: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Reinforcement – any event
that increases the frequency of a preceding response, or strengthens the behavior that it follows
![Page 53: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
IE. Being able to borrow the car after the dishes are done will increase the likelihood that you will do the dishes again.
![Page 54: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Positive Reinforcement –
strengthens a response by presenting a typically pleasurable stimulus after a response. IE. Food for a hungry animal.
Attention, approval, money for people.
![Page 55: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
![Page 56: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Operant ConditioningNegative Reinforcement –
strengthens a response by reducing or removing an aversive stimulus
![Page 57: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
IE. Taking aspirin to relieve a headache will increase the behavior of taking aspirin because it reduces or eliminates the pain. Smoking a cigarette to relieve stress will increase the behavior of smoking because it reduces or eliminates anxiety and pressure.
![Page 58: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Positive ADDS a desirable stimulus,
like getting a hug or watching t.v. Negative REMOVES an aversive
stimulus, like fastening a seatbelt to stop the annoying beeping
![Page 59: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Primary Reinforcers –one that
primarily satisfies a biological need
Conditioned or Secondary Reinforcers – a stimulus that is learned, and/or is associated with a primary reinforcer
![Page 60: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
IE. Primary reinforcers may be food, or pain relief. Secondary reinforcers may be money, praise, good grades, a pleasant tone of voice.
![Page 61: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Immediate and Delayed Reinforcers –
How quickly does a reinforcement needed to be given after a desired behavior has been exhibited in order for the behavior to be conditioned? How often does the reinforcement need to be given to condition proper behavior?
![Page 62: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Continuous Reinforcement –
Reinforcing the desired response immediately, every time it occurs. Learning occurs quickly, but as soon as reinforcement ends, extinction occurs very quickly also.
![Page 63: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
You go to the same soda machine every day, put your money into it, and it delivers a soda. On Friday, you put your money into it and it doesn’t work. Same thing Saturday. You stop using the machine, though a week later you may try again.
![Page 64: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Partial (Intermittent)
Reinforcement – Reinforcing a response only part of the time. This results in slower acquisition of a response, but much greater resistance to extinction also.
![Page 65: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/65.jpg)
IE. Slot machines. You may win only once in long while, but you’ll keep playing because the reinforcement is worth it, and the habit may last a long time.
![Page 66: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Partial (Intermittent) Reinforcement
Schedules: Fixed-Ratio = a schedule of
reinforcement that reinforces only after a specified number of responses. IE. Every 10th sale gets a prize.
![Page 67: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Partial (Intermittent) Reinforcement
Schedules: Variable-Ratio Schedule = a
schedule of reinforcement that reinforces a response after an unpredictable number of responses IE. Slot machines, fishing.
![Page 68: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Partial (Intermittent) Reinforcement
Schedules: Fixed-interval schedules = a schedule
of reinforcement that reinforces a response only after a specified time has elapsed IE. At the end of every 30 minutes a
new batch of cookies will be baked.
![Page 69: 14812 learning](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022011722/58efe84e1a28ab54658b45c7/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Operant Conditioning Partial (Intermittent) Reinforcement Schedules:
