Hot List Psych 222 Sept
24, 2000
1) Advantage and disadvantages of closed and open systems
2) Konrad Lorenz and imprinting
3) SS-IRM-FAP (taxes etc)
4) General process theory of learning
5) Single stimulus effect
6) Nonassociative learning
7) Habituation and sensitization (as control groups)
8) Contingency of associative learning
9) CS.CR,UR,US
10) Extinction, spontaneous recovery and explanation
11) Taste aversion learning and unique characteristics
12) Variables that effect conditioning, ISI, frequency,
Fusability, intensity and
contingency
13) What is learning and what it is not
14) Habituation with examples
15) Sensitization with examples
16) Learning/definition and what it is not (repeat)
17) instinct
18) Stimulus learning, signalization, anticipatory, Pavlovian, Classical
19) Describe classical conditioning with examples using CS, UCS,
UCR,
CR(repeat)
10) Control Groups for Pavlovian conditioning: pseudoconditioning,
sensitization, and random pairing (repeat)
11) Inhibition: internal, delay, latent, external, disinhibition,
conditioned, latent
12) Parameters of Pavlovian conditioning and how manipulation of such
influences the strength of the CR (ISI
(trace, backward, forward simultaneous, and temporal), ITI, Intensity).
(repeat)
13) Spontaneous recovery: what does this say about complete CR elimination
14) Partial reinforcement during acquisition and extinction and
ramifications
15) Derivatives of Pavlovian conditioning: sensory preconditioning and
higher order conditioning. Be able to design a SPC or HOC study with
appropriate controls
16) Kamin blocking effect
17) What is all this ranting about contingency and learning. What about his
.5 nonsense. Know the study that demonstrates the importance of contingency
over contiguity
18) Absolutely know every detail of Lavin’s flavor SPC study including
controls and not expt 2 and 3.
19) Learned helplessness in Pavlovian conditioning
20) Counterconditioning and conditioned suppression
21) overshadowing or latent inhibition
22) Know Siegel et al and Pre-drug stimuli and conditioned analgesis. Major
ramifications and applications. Know his 2X22 design and results of every cell.
(Krank, Seegal, and Hinson)
25)Biological constraints
on Pavlovian learning: what does it mean, equipotentiality, general process
learning theory, continuum of preparedness, flavor aversion learning with
control, what is the major message here that Pavlov overlooked. Why did I bring
my dog to class.
26) Applications: By the time of the test we will have overdosed you with
numerous examples of how Pavlovian conditioning is being applied. I will have
given you at least 6 and the class will have give 6. Know at least 12
applications.
27) Bright, noisy sweet H20 experiment. Garcia and Koelling (1966). Results
and ramifications.
28) SPC, HOC, overshadowing (repea)
29) Rescorla’s hurdle jump experiment with helplessness ramifications
30) If I were you I would avoid the Rescorla/Wagner moder
More for grad learning
31) neophobia
33) give me some reflexes (uCS-UCR)
34) examples of
therapeutic classical conditioning like
systematic desensitization
35) take me seriously
here, you will here and have heard more than several examples of Pavlovian
application coming from my lectures and from you fellow student presentations.
Know a bundle of examples in detail.
