CLASSICAL CONDITIONING
ONE TRIAL LEARNING
Requires a number of associations between the UCS and NS
Quickly acquired
Can extinguish relatively quickly
Resistant to extinction
The UCS is presented immediately after the CS
The CR (feeling sick) can occur hours or days after the CS (food) but an association between the two is still made
Stimulus generalization may occur
Stimulus generalization rarely occurs
you can use almost any stimulus in c.c
in o.t.l food is nearly the only effective stimulus.
social learning
I think... With classical conditioning, the conditional stimulus is presented before the unconditional stimulus to form a conditioned response. For example, training a dog to return when a whistle is blown. With operant conditioning, reinforcement is presented after the response. For example, rewards (positive reinforcement) are given for good behaviour. Punishment (negative reinforcement) for bad. Hope this helps... Classical conditioning was discovered accidentally by Pavlov.
Association theory is a psychological concept that suggests that learning occurs through the association between a stimulus and a response, often through repeated exposure. It is commonly used to explain how conditioning can influence behavior and responses in various situations. This theory has been influential in understanding processes like classical and operant conditioning in psychology.
Learning theories are frameworks that describe how learning occurs, whereas learning styles refer to individual preferences for how information is best processed and understood. Learning theories focus on the overall process of learning, while learning styles focus on how individuals approach and engage with that process.
Learning refers to any relatively permanent change in behavior. Acquisition refers to a stage of either Operant or Classical Conditioning/Learning, in which the subject of the experiment learns to associate one behavior with a consequence or one stimuli with another.
Involuntary conditioning is associated with classical conditioning, while voluntary conditioning is associated with operant conditioning. Classical conditioning involves learning by association between stimuli, while operant conditioning involves learning by reinforcement or punishment of behaviors.
Classical conditioning involves learning through association, where a neutral stimulus becomes associated with a meaningful stimulus to produce a response. Operant conditioning involves learning through consequences, where behaviors are strengthened or weakened based on the consequences that follow them.
Both classical and operant conditioning are forms of associative learning, where behavior is influenced through the process of forming associations between stimuli and responses. In classical conditioning, the association is between two stimuli, while in operant conditioning, the association is between a behavior and its consequence.
In classical conditioning, the association between the neutral stimulus and the unconditioned stimulus is important for learning, leading to a conditioned response. In operant conditioning, reinforcement and punishment are primary for learning as they influence the likelihood of a behavior being repeated in the future.
The key variables affecting classical conditioning include the timing of the conditioned and unconditioned stimuli, the strength of the stimuli, the predictability of the association between the stimuli, and the intensity of the response to the unconditioned stimulus. These variables can influence the effectiveness and rate of learning in classical conditioning.
Robert Rescorla and Allan Wagner proposed the contingency theory for classical conditioning. This theory suggests that learning occurs when there is a predictive relationship between a conditioned stimulus and an unconditioned stimulus.
The type of conditioning where the response is voluntary and purposeful is known as operant conditioning, as it involves learning through consequences for voluntary behaviors. In contrast, classical conditioning involves learning through associations between stimuli and automatic responses.

The five components of classical conditioning are unconditioned stimulus (UCS), unconditioned response (UCR), conditioned stimulus (CS), conditioned response (CR), and acquisition, which is the process of learning the association between the CS and the UCS.
Stimulus discrimination in operant conditioning refers to the ability to respond differently to similar stimuli based on specific cues or features present in the environment. In classical conditioning, stimulus discrimination involves learning to differentiate between two similar stimuli and responding differently to each based on the conditioning experience.
Classical conditioning involves forming an association between an involuntary response and a stimulus, while operant conditioning involves forming an association between a voluntary behavior and a consequence. Classical conditioning is passive learning through associations, while operant conditioning is active learning through consequences and rewards. Both types of conditioning aim to modify behavior, but they do so in different ways.
