About
This quiz comprehensively covers the fundamental principles of learning theory for AP Psychology students in grades 11-12. The content spans all major learning paradigms including classical conditioning, operant conditioning, and cognitive learning theories. Students need mastery of key terminology, understanding of experimental methodology, and the ability to distinguish between different types of conditioning processes. The questions assess knowledge of reinforcement schedules, punishment versus reinforcement, biological constraints on learning, and observational learning principles. Critical concepts include acquisition and extinction processes, stimulus discrimination and generalization, the role of biological preparedness in learning, and applications of learning principles through behavior modification techniques. Students must also demonstrate familiarity with foundational researchers and their contributions, from Pavlov's classical conditioning experiments to Bandura's social learning theory and Seligman's learned helplessness research. Created by Rebecca Trahan, a Social Studies teacher in the US who teaches grade 11. This comprehensive vocabulary quiz serves as an essential study tool for students preparing for the AP Psychology exam, specifically targeting Unit 6 on Learning. The quiz effectively supports instruction through its systematic coverage of all major learning theories and can be utilized as a review session before unit tests, formative assessment during instruction, or homework assignment to reinforce classroom learning. Teachers can implement this as a warm-up activity to activate prior knowledge or as a comprehensive review tool before the AP exam. The quiz aligns with College Board AP Psychology standards for Unit 6, particularly focusing on learning principles and their applications (6.A.1 through 6.E.3), covering classical conditioning paradigms, operant conditioning mechanisms, and cognitive learning approaches that students must master for success on the national examination.
