Classical conditioning is best known by Pavlov's dogs. This type of conditioning takes a neutral stimulus and makes a person or animal respond to it. Operant conditioning uses punishment to get a behavior to stop.

Can responses to stimuli be learned?

Yes, responses to stimuli can be learned through a process called conditioning. For example, in classical conditioning, an organism can learn to associate a neutral stimulus with a biologically significant stimulus, leading to a learned response. In operant conditioning, behavior is shaped through reinforcement or punishment in response to stimuli.


What is the natural human conditioning process?

The natural human conditioning process refers to how individuals learn and adapt to their environment through experiences and interactions. This process involves forming associations between stimuli and responses, which can influence behavior and decision-making. Conditioning can be both classical (associating stimuli with automatic responses) and operant (learning through consequences of actions).


Which term describes a relatively permanent change in behavior or the potential to make a response that occurs as a result of experience?

Cognition


To gradually make somebody feel think or behave in a particular way over a period of time?

This process is known as "conditioning," where repeated exposure to certain stimuli can influence someone's thoughts, feelings, or behaviors. It can be achieved through techniques like classical conditioning, where a neutral stimulus is paired with a significant one to create an association, or through operant conditioning, where the consequences of a behavior determine its likelihood of reoccurring.


What is the Contiguity of the Stimuli?

Contiguity of stimuli refers to the idea that events that occur close together in time or space are more likely to be associated with each other in the individual's mind. This concept is often used in classical and operant conditioning to explain how associations between stimuli and responses are formed.

Is involuntary and voluntary a classical or operant conditioning?

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.


Can addictions be developed through operant conditioning?

Yes! phobias are developed through classical conditioning and addictions through operant conditioning.

Both classical and operant conditioning are forms of?

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.

Which of the following is TRUE regarding acquisition and extinction?

These terms apply to classical conditioning but not to operant conditioning


According to Skinner in classical conditioning behavior is but in operant conditioning behavior is . a. incomplete complete b. forced chosen c. immediate delayed d. unint?

According to Skinner, in classical conditioning behavior is elicited or triggered by a specific stimulus, while in operant conditioning behavior is shaped and maintained by its consequences. This means that in classical conditioning, the behavior is a reflex response to a stimulus, whereas in operant conditioning, behavior is voluntary and influenced by reinforcements or punishments.


What scientist is most associated with operant conditioning?

I believe it is Pavlov ^^ Close, but Pavlov is better associated with classical conditioning while I believe B.F. Skinner is most associated with operant conditioning.


Why classical conditioning is called classical?

Probably because it was the first kind of conditioning to be demonstrated and studied. See Pavlov As eluded to above, classical conditioning is called such because it was the first kind of conditioning to be studied and demonstrated. However, the term "classical" also is used to differentiate this type of conditioning from "Operant Conditioning" which was first demonstrated by B.F. Skinner.


What is the best way to differentiate operant conditioning from classical conditioning?

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.


Can you explain the difference between classical conditioning and operant conditioning in psychology?

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.


What is stimulus discrimination in operant conditioning and classical conditioning?

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.
