PSYO 310 Midterm 2 || with 100% Errorless Answers.
Unconditioned stimulus (US) correct answers A cue that has some biological significance and in
the absence of prior training naturally evokes a response.
Unconditioned response (UR) correct answers The naturally occurring response to an
unconditioned stimulus (US).
Conditioned stimulus (CS) correct answers A cue that is paired with an unconditioned stimulus
(US) and comes to elicit a conditioned response (CR).
Conditioned Response (CR) correct answers The trained response to a conditioned stimulus (CS)
in anticipation of the unconditioned stimulus (US) that it predicts.
Appetite Conditioning correct answers Conditioning in which the US is a positive event (such as
food delivery).
Aversive Conditioning correct answers Conditioning in which the US is a negative event (such
as a shock or airpuff to the the eye).
Eyeblink conditioning correct answers A classical conditioning procedure in which the US is an
airpuff to the eye and the conditioned and unconditioned responses are eyeblinks.
Tolerance correct answers A decrease in reaction to a drug so that larger doses are required to
achieve the same effect.
Extinction correct answers The process of reducing a learned response to a stimulus by ceasing
to pair that stimulus with a reward or punishment.
Compound conditioning correct answers The simultaneous conditioning of two cues, usually
presented at the same time.
Overshadowing correct answers An effect seen in compound conditioning when a more salient
cue within a compound acquires more association strength, and is thus more strongly
conditioned, than does the less salient cue.
Blocking correct answers A two-phase training paradigm in which prior training to one cue
(CS1→US) blocks later learning of a second cue when the two are paired together in the second
phase of the training (CS1 + CS2→US).
Prediction error correct answers The difference between what was predicted and what actually
occurred
error-correction learning correct answers a mathematical specification of the conditions for
learning that holds that the degree to which an outcome is surprising modulates the amount of
learning that takes place.
, Latent learning correct answers A conditioning paradigm in which prior exposure to a CS retards
later learning of the CS-US association during acquisition training.
US modulation theory correct answers Any of the theories of conditioning that say the stimulus
that enters into an association determined by change is how the US is processed.
CS modulation theory correct answers Any of the theories of conditioning holding that the
stimulus that enters into an association is determined by a change in how the CS is processed.
US, CS correct answers Fill in the blanks: The Rescorla-Wagner model explains conditioning as
modulation of the effectiveness of the _________ for learning, while the Mackintosh model
explains conditioning through modulation of attention to the ________.
(a) Mackintosh (b) Rescorla-Wagner correct answers From the examples below, which of these
explanations of Connie's behavior would be best explained by the Rescorla-Wagner model?
Which would be better explained by the Mackintosh model?
a. Connie loved the oatmeal raisin cookies so much, she devoted all of her attention to them. She
didn't even bother tasting the chocolate chip cookies.
b. Connie was happy eating only the oatmeal raisin cookies, and she didn't feel any need to begin
eating a new type of cookie.
Trial-level model correct answers A theory of learning in which all of the cues that occur during
a trial and all of changes that result are considered a single event.
Delay conditioning correct answers A conditioning procedure in which there is no temporal gap
between the end of the CS and the beginning of the US, and in which the CS co-terminates with
the US.
Trace conditioning correct answers A conditioning procedure in which there is a temporal gap
between the end of the CS and the beginning of the US.
Interstimulus interval (ISI) correct answers The temporal gap between the onset of the CS and
the onset of the US.
Conditioned taste aversion correct answers A condition preparation in which a subject learns to
avoid a taste that has been paired with an aversive outcome, usually nausea.
Purkinje cells correct answers a type of large, drop-shaped, and densely branching neuron in the
cerebellar cortex.
Interpostitus Nucleus correct answers One of the cerebellar deep nuclei.
Inferior olive correct answers A nucleus of cells with connections to the thalamus, cerebellum,
and spinal cord.
