Classical Conditioning (Edexcel A-Level Psychology): Flashcards

Learning through association

Stimulus producing natural, unlearned response

Natural response without learning (reflex action)

Previously neutral stimulus now produces same response

Behaviour shown in response to learned stimulus

CS produces same behaviour to similar stimuli

Learning to respond only to specific stimulus

Disappearance of learned behaviour when CS presented without UCS

Quick re-learning after extinction; not complete unlearning

Dogs learned to salivate to metronome paired with food
