• Operant conditiong

• Counterconditioning

• Classical conditioning

• Latent Learning

Which of the following describes the process by which a conditioned response is extinguished?

• Similar stimuli causes the same response

• Stimuli that are not similar to each other cause a different response

• A conditioned stimulus is no longer followed by an unconditioned response

• The conditioned response is no longer paired with an unconditioned response

What is the term for the process that helps people and animals adapt to their environment by responding differently to stimuli that are NOT similar to each other?

• Extinction

• Flooding

• Discrimination

• Generalization

Which method of overcoming fear features makes use of relaxation techniques?

• Extinction

• Systematic desensitization

• Counterconditioning

• Flooding

Primary and secondary reinforcers are important in which of the following?

• Classical conditioning

• Taste aversion

• Discrimination

Which of the following best describes when a variable-interval schedule provides reinforcement?

• Every time an action occurs

• After an unpredictable amount of times

• After an action has occurred five times

What process is used in learning to ride a bicycle?

• Classical conditioning

• Shaping and chaining

• Flooding

• Latent learning

People who watch a lot of violence on television are more likely to be violent in part because of

• Observational learning

• Classical conditioning

• Negative reinforcement

• Systematic desensitization

Why is the PQ4R Method an effective study method?

• Because it takes an active approach to learning

• Because it is an example of classical conditioning

• Because it works through flooding

• Because it uses latent learning techniques

What is one reason that flashbulb memories are particularly vivid?

• They are recalled infrequently

• They are distinct and meaningful

• They involve learning skills that are never forgotten

• They involve all five senses
