Operant Conditioning and Pigs

Practice writing the test essay “Compare and contrast operant and classical conditioning in five areas.” 1. Take out a sheet of paper 2. You need your book today: Use page 339 in the textbook 3. Write using your own words. Exchange papers • Peer edit their paper. • Check to see if they have the needed terms and concepts. • If they don’t add them. • If they do give them a plus sign (+) • Answers in red Essay note • You won’t be able to use your notes or book on Monday’s test. .∑¨π®µªΩ∫ "≥®∫∫∞™®≥"∂µ´∞ª∞∂µ∞µÆ Remembering the five categories • B • R • A • C • E B • Biological predispositions "≥®∫∫∞™®≥ ™∂µ´∞ª∞∂µ∞µÆ©∞∂≥∂Æ∞™®≥ /π¨´∞∫∑∂∫∞ª∞∂µ∫ ≥¨®πµ∞µÆ∞∫™∂µ∫ªπ®∞µ¨´©¿®µ®µ∞¥ ®≥∫©∞∂≥∂Æ¿ µ®ªºπ®≥∑π¨´∞∫∑∂∫∞ª∞∂µ∫™∂µ∫ªπ®∞µ∫∂π≥∞¥ ∞ª∫ æ Ø®ª∫ª∞¥ º≥∞®µ´π¨∫∑∂µ∫¨∫™®µ©¨®∫∫∂™∞®ª¨´ ©¿ªØ¨®µ∞¥ ®≥ John Garcia’s research, 322 • Biological predispositions • John Garcia: animals can learn to avoid a drink that will make them sick, but not when its announced by a noise or a light; !≥∂Æ∞™®≥/π¨´∞∫∑∂∫∞ª∞∂µ∫ C o u r t e s & ®π™∞®∫Ø∂æ ¨´ªØ®ªª ¨´ºπ®ª∞∂µ y o f J o ©¨ªæ ¨¨µª ¨"2®µ´ªØ¨4 2¥ ®¿©¨ h n G a r ≥∂µÆ&Ø∂ºπ∫'©ºª¿¨ªπ¨∫º≥ª∞µ c i a ™∂µ´∞ª∞∂µ∞µÆ ©∞∂≥∂Æ∞™®≥≥¿®´®∑ª∞Ω¨ )∂ص& ®π™∞® "2&ª®∫ª¨'≥¨´ª∂™∂µ´∞ª∞∂µ∞µÆ®µ´µ∂ª ª∂∂ªØ¨π∫&≥∞Æت∂π∫∂ºµ´' Human example • We more easily are classically conditioned to fear snakes or spiders, rather than flowers. • Why?

Another example • You couldn’t use operant conditioning with food to train a hamster to wash their face. • They don’t associate washing with food. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/be/Hamster.jpg/626px-Hamster.jpg R • Response Responses • For classical, the organism responded involuntarily to a stimulus; • or it’s automatic • For operant, the organism acts on their environment, so the response is voluntary.
