In a study, participants learned to expect a loud noise after a flashing light, and also learned that pressing a button prevented the noise. This combination of learned events is an example of:

• Habituation

• Associative Learning

• Observational Learning

• Classical Extinction

A child learns that when they clean their room, they receive praise, and they also learn to blink at a flash before a loud sound. These learning processes both illustrate:

• Operant Conditioning

• Classical Conditioning

• Associative Learning

• Latent Learning

A dog salivates when it hears a bell because it predicts food, and also stops jumping when given a timeout after jumping. What type of learning explains both behaviors?

• Vicarious Conditioning

• Associative Learning

• Modeling

• Sensory Adaptation

In a training program, employees learn that completing tasks leads to bonuses, and also respond to warning signals predicting emergencies. This shows their use of:

• Associative Learning

• Habituation

• Punishment

• Observational Learning

What term describes when a subject is conditioned to link one stimulus with another, producing a specific behavior?

• Reinforcement

• Association

• Modeling

• Habituation

Which of the following best defines the process of connecting two stimuli that leads to a particular response?

• Punishment

• Association

• Extinction

• Sensory Adaptation

When a subject learns to connect a stimulus with another stimulus, resulting in a behavior, this is called:

• Shaping

• Association

• Vicarious Learning

• Generalization

The process by which a stimulus becomes linked with another stimulus, causing a specific behavior to occur, is known as:

• Association

• Reinforcement

• Latent Learning

• Habituation

In a study, dogs learned to salivate when a bell rang because the bell was paired with food. This process exemplifies which concept?

• Modeling

• Extinction

• Association

• Observational Learning

A child begins to feel anxious whenever they hear a thunderstorm because they previously linked thunder with a frightening experience. This scenario demonstrates:

• Operant Conditioning

• Association

• Punishment

• Habituation
