In this unit, we covered how responses in many contexts have their roots in classical conditioning, including responses to the sound of an ice cream truck and gaining a strong aversion to a food item. In what ways have you experienced the effects of classical conditioning? Provide an example. In your example, you should identify the unconditioned stimulus, unconditioned response, conditioned stimulus, and conditioned response.
Imagine that you want to train an animal to perform a certain behavior (e.g., using the bathroom outside, performing a trick, being well-mannered). Using the processes of operant conditioning, choose a behavior and explain how you would train an animal to perform the behavior.
What are the differences between the Rescorla-Wagner model and Mackintosh model? Specifically, how do they explain blocking effects?
You adopt an animal from a shelter. Unfortunately, the animal has some brain damage, particularly in the cerebellum. Using information from Unit 2, which types of issues would you expect this animal to have with respect to learning and memory? Explain your answer.
