Assignment4 Crossword

A form of sign tracking in which a keylight that is paired with food elicits pecking in the pigeon. It has become a popular method for studying classical conditioning.
The finding that little or no conditioning occurs to a new stimulus if it is combined with a previously conditioned stimulus during conditioning trials.
The response that is elicited by the conditional stimulus after classical conditioning has taken place.
An initially neutral stimulus (like a bell, light, or tone) that begins to elicit a conditional response after it has been paired with an unconditional stimulus.
The “if-then” relationship between two events.
______ conditioning. A classical conditioning procedure in which the conditional stimulus commences on its own and then terminates with presentation of the unconditional stimulus.
In classical conditioning, the potential of a conditional stimulus to signal an unconditional stimulus or elicit a conditional response.
A procedure in which a conditional stimulus is presented alone and the unconditional stimulus is presented at another time.
The transfer of a learned response from one stimulus to a similar stimulus.
Movement toward the site where a positive unconditional stimulus will be delivered during presentation of a conditional stimulus that signals the US.
In classical conditioning, the capacity of a conditional stimulus to signal a decrease in the probability of the unconditional stimulus. Generally, an active process that suppresses excitation or reduces the strength of a response.
Inhibition of ______. Inhibition that develops to the early portion of a conditional stimulus in a delay conditioning procedure. The early part of a conditional stimulus signals a period without the unconditional stimulus.
The period of time between two successive trials.
_____ Inhibition. Interference with conditioning that is produced by repeated exposures to the conditional stimulus before conditioning begins.
Conditioning trials separated by a short intertrial interval.
_______ Contingency. A situation where the probability of one event is lower if another event has occurred.
The finding that there is less conditioning to a weak conditional stimulus if it is combined with a more salient conditional stimulus during conditioning trials.
_______ Contingency. A situation where the probability of one event is higher if another event has occurred.
______ -of-aquisition test. A test procedure that identifies a stimulus as a conditioned inhibitor if it is slower than a comparison stimulus to acquire excitation when it is paired with an unconditional stimulus.
_____ conditioning. A classical conditioning procedure in which a conditional response is acquired by a neutral stimulus when the latter is paired with a stimulus that has previously been conditioned.
An increase in the strength of an elicited behavior that results merely from repeated presentations of the eliciting stimulus.
______ conditioning. A procedure in which the conditional stimulus and unconditional stimulus are presented at the same time.
A test procedure in which conditional stimuli that are conditioned separately are then combined in a compound.
______ conditioning. A classical conditioning procedure in which the unconditional stimulus is presented after the conditional stimulus has been terminated.
Unconditional ________. An innate response that is elicited by a stimulus in the absence of conditioning.
Unconditional _____. The stimulus that elicits the response before conditioning occurs.
Interference with conditioning that is produced by repeated exposures to the unconditional stimulus before conditioning begins.
