Learning • Definition: A relatively permanent change in behavior potential caused by experience or practice. • Different from warmup, fatigue, motivation, development • Behaviorism & Environment • S-R = Stimulus-Response • Conditioning = Learning • Classical & Operant • Other Approaches: • Cognitive • Physiological • Observational Learning
Classical Conditioning (Pavlovian) • Pavlov’s Studies • Gastric Responses • Discovered Learned Responses • Terminology: • US = Unconditioned Stimulus • UR = Unconditioned Response • CS = Conditioned Stimulus • CR = Conditioned Response
Stages of Classical Conditioning 1. Before Learning 2. During Learning 3. Learned 4. Extinction (forgetting) 5. Spontaneous Recovery 6. Stimulus Generalization • US UR • CS no response • US + CS UR (many times) • CS (alone) CR • CS doesn’t CR • CS CR after extinction • CS CR
Operant Conditioning • Consequences control behavior • Rewards & Punishment • S-R = Stimulus-Response • Reinforcement: • Strengthens behavior • Punishment: • Weakens behavior • Extinction & Spontaneous Recovery • Discrimination Learning
Operant Conditioning (Continued) • Shaping • Successive approximations to goal behavior • Schedules of Reinforcement • Continuous vs. Partial • Partial Reinforcement Schedules • Interval vs. Ratio • Fixed vs. Variable • Resistance to extinction
