Across
- 4. It is a foundational element of logic and human reasoning
- 5. refers to the memory of meanings, understandings, and other concept-based knowledge, and underlies the conscious recollection of factual information and general knowledge about the world
- 6. sometimes called an unconditioned reinforcer, is a stimulus that does not require pairing to function as a reinforcer and most likely has obtained this function through the evolution and its role in species' survival
- 7. is memory for the performance of particular types of action
- 8. theory to explain how interactions lead to "construction of knowledge"
- 12. reinforcement of successive approximations to a desired instrumental response. In training a rat to press a lever, for example, simply turning toward the lever is reinforced at first. Then, only turning and stepping toward it is reinforced. The outcomes of one set of behaviours starts the shaping process for the next set of behaviours, and the outcomes of that set prepares the shaping process for the next set, and so on
Down
- 1. memory of autobiographical events (times, places, associated emotions, and other contextual knowledge) that can be explicitly stated
- 2. sometimes referred to as explicit memory,one of two types of long term human memory
- 3. occurs when an aversive (unpleasant) stimulus is removed as a result of operant behavior and the rate of the behavior increases
- 5. sometimes called a conditioned reinforcer, is a stimulus or situation that has acquired its function as a reinforcer after pairing with a stimulus that functions as a reinforcer. This stimulus may be a primary reinforcer or another conditioned reinforcer
- 7. act of attending to and processing one item at a time
- 8. linking discrete behaviors together in a series, such that each result of each behavior is both the reinforcement (or consequence) for the previous behavior, and the stimuli (or antecedent) for the next behavior
- 9. occurs when a stimulus is presented as a result of operant behavior and that behavior increases
- 10. the CS is presented repeatedly in the absence of a US. This is done after a CS has been conditioned by one of the methods above. When this is done the CR frequency eventually returns to pre-training levels
- 11. encoded, stored, and retrieved are stages of what?
