Note cards:  Below is a list of terms that you will need to know for the AP Psych Exam.  These are due January 8th.  Each note card should have the term on the front.  Then, on the back you need to A) define the term and B) show application of the term.  This application can sometimes best be expressed as a personal example.  You can also draw the application of the term if you so desire.

acquisition	learning
associative learning	Neutral stimulus
classical conditioning	operant conditioning
cognitive map	punishment
discrimination	reinforcer
extinction	shaping
fixed interval schedule	spontaneous recovery
fixed ratio schedule	US / UR / CS / CR
generalization	variable interval schedule
latent learning	variable ratio schedule
