Instinctual Behavior:
•Largely genetic
•Triggered by specific stimuli
•Produces specific behaviors

Learning:
the process of developing a
behavioral response based on
experience

Conditioning (Associative learning):
•learned behavioral response to a
novel or substituted stimulus
•Uses reward as a basis for
learning

Conditioning (Associative learning):
•Classical (Passive) Conditioning
•Operant (Active) Conditioning
Conditioning (Associative learning):
•Classical (Passive) Conditioning
•Operant (Active) Conditioning
Classical Conditioning
•A stimulus is substituted for one that
is already associated with a behavior
•Animal learns to associate the new
stimulus with the reward
•Is passive
•The reward follows the stimulus

Generalized vs Discriminating
Conditioning (Associative learning):
•Classical (Passive) Conditioning
•Operant (Active) Conditioning
Operant Conditioning
•The animal must perform an act
(behavior) in response to a stimulus
to get the reward
•The reward follows the behavior,
not the stimulus
•It is an active process; the animal
must do something specific to get the
reward
Operant Conditioning
•The animal must perform an act
(behavior) in response to a stimulus
to get the reward
•The reward follows the behavior,
not the stimulus
