Learning Theories test review

The test on learning theories will be on Thursday. Here is a study guide for the test. You have all period to work on this. Tomorrow we will be putting the social learning theory into practice by learning a little dance number. I will not be testing you on concepts not covered on the study guide. However, I will collect these study guides on test day for a grade.

Study guide (Hint, many of these answers are on your previous book notes:

1.) Who originally developed classical conditioning?
2.) Define UCS, UCR, NS, CS, CR.
3.) Be able to properly label all the parts of classical conditioning simulations.
4.) What is the process of classical conditioning? Be sure to use all the vocab including generalization, discrimination, extinction, and spontaneous recovery.
5.) Define and describe positive/negative reinforcement.
6.) Define and describe positive/negative punishment.
7.) Which is better, fixed or variable ratio scheduling? Why?
8.) What is the difference between a primary and secondary reinforcer?
9.) Describe the process of shaping. Give at least two examples.
10.) What are escape and avoidance conditioning? What is the difference between the two?
11.) Define operant conditioning.
12.) Design an operant conditioning experiment/ simulation.
13.) What is a response chain?
14.) Why is understanding human's motivators so important when it comes to operant conditioning?
15.) Define and describe social learning.
16.) What are some positive and negative affects of social learning?
17.) Does behavior have to change in order for social learning to have taken place?
18.) What is learned helplessness? Give an example.
19.) What is learned laziness? Give and example.
20.) How does the modeling process work?
21.) What is behavior modification?
22.) How can we use behavior modification to improve our self control?
23.) Which form of conditioning do you think is most powerful? Which do you think is most prevalent? Defend your answer.
24.) How does social learning through social networks affect your life? List 3 positives and negatives.
