CPDT-KA Questions and Correct
Answers the Latest Update
Operant Conditioning - Skinner
✓ learned by association -works with VOLUNTARY behaviors - applying
reinforcement or punishment AFTER the behavior
✓ Creator of this method considered a "reinforcer" something that made a behavior
occur more frequently. If there was no change in the behavior, it wasn't a
reinforcement.
✓ Formula:
✓ Discriminative Stimulus (your command)-Response-Consequence
Classical Conditioning - Pavlov
✓ Learned association between 2 events: 1 event is neutral and 1 event elicits an
unconditioned response. Works with INVOLUNTARY/automatic behaviors (like
drooling) and placing a neutral sign (like ringing a bell) BEFORE it.
Learning
✓ a change in behavior that lasts for a long time
Performance
✓ the doing of a behavior, doesn't mean that something was learned
✓ the beginning steps of an exercise towards performing a command that is new to the
dog
Reward Based Training
✓ uses positive reinforcement (rewards) and negative punishment (removing something
the dog likes - i.e. your attention)
Primary Reinforcer
✓ food, water, anything dog needs for survival. Food activates parasympathetic nervous
system, can calm dog, make him less fearful, & result in training process being
enjoyable
Secondary Reinforcer aka Conditioned Reinforcer
✓ Clicker, saying "yes", . . . marks a behavior as rewardable and promises reward in
near future. Rewards such as tennis balls, petting, clapping, tug- dog is conditioned to
like them. ALL OF THESE ARE LEARNED THROUGH CLASSICAL
CONDITIONING.
Tertiary Reinforcer
✓ cues the dog knows and enjoys doing. the doing is the reinforcer
One of the most important points about reinforcement
✓ Do not feed or reinforce unwanted behaviors during training
Shaping
✓ rewards dog for successive approximations of the behavior
✓ lead the dog into the behavior by tempting with a treat
Prompting
✓ Much like luring only the animal can't see the treat
Chaining
✓ method of teaching a complex sequence of behaviors. each behavior signals the
other behavior that eventually signals a reward. Doing this from the last step to the
first step is usually the most efficient way - with the last behavior trained first,
followed by a reward. Then teach the behavior that will preceed that one, etc, etc.
Free Shaping
✓ No instruction, cues or input is given, except for the clicker.
Stimulus Control
✓ how a dog responds to cue
Under stimulus control
✓ when dog does not:
✓ 1. refuse to give behavior when cued to do so
✓ 2.give the behavior if not cued to do so
✓ 3.give the behavior for a different cue
✓ 4. give a different behavior on the cue
