|
a metal representation of the environment

|
Continuous Reinforcement Schedule
|
in operant conditioning, a pattern in which a reinforcer is delivered every time a particular response occurs
|
|
Fixed-Interval Schedules
|
in operant conditioning, a type of partial reinforcement schedule that provides reinforcement for the first response after some fixed time has passed since the last reward
|
|
Fixed-Ratio Schedules
|
in operant conditioning, a type of partial reinforcement schedule that provides reinforment following a fixed number of responses.

|
Insight
|
in problem solving, a sudden understanding about what is required to prodce a desired effect

|
Latent Learning
|
learning that is not demonstrated at the time it occurs
|
|
Learned Helplessness
|
a phenomenon that occurs when an organism has or believes it has no control over its environment

|
Observational Learning
|
learning how to perform new behaviors by watching the behavior of others

|
Partial Reinforcement Extinction Effect
|
behaviors learned on partial reinforcement schedules are harder to extinguish than one learned on a continuous reinforcement schedule

|
Partial Reinforcement Schedule
|
in operant conditioning, a pattern of reinforcement in which a reinforcer is only administered some of the time after a particular response occurs.

reinforcers that meet an organism's most basic needs

|
Shaping
|
in operant conditioning, a procedure that rewards responses that come successively closer to the desired response

|
Variable Interval Schedules
|
in operant conditioning, a type of partial reinforcement that provides reinforcement for the first response after a variable amount of time
|
|
Variable Ratio Schedules
|
a type of partial reinforcement schedule that provides reinforment after a varying number of responses
