Learning Targets:

Define learning and identify some basic forms of learning.

Explain behaviorism's view of learning.Identify Pavlov, and describe the basic components of classical conditioning.Identify the process of acquisition, extinction, spontaneous recovery, generalization, and discrimination in classical conditioning.

Summarize why Pavlov's work remains so important.Describe some applications of Pavlov's work to hunan health and well-being, and explain how Watson applied

Pavlov's principles to learned fears.

Point to remember: This is the beginning of the behavioral branch of psychology!

Note cards:  Below is a list of terms that you will need to know for the AP Psych Exam.   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
