8726521819	conditioned stimulus (CS)	in classical conditioning, an originally irrelevant stimulus that, after addiction with an UCS comes to trigger a CR	1
8726521820	acquisition	in classical conditioning, the initial stage, when one links a neutral stimulus and an unconditioned stimulus so that the neutral stimulus begins triggering the conditioned response	2
8726521821	higher order conditioning	a procedure in which the conditioned stimulus in one conditioning experience is paired with a new neutral stimulus, creating a second (often weaker) conditioned stimulus	3
8726521822	extinction	the diminishing of a conditioned response	4
8726521823	spontaneous recovery	the reappearance, after a pause, of an extinguished conditioned response	5
8726521824	Generalization	The tendency, once a response has been conditioned, for stimuli similar to the conditioned stimulus to elicit similar responses	6
8726521825	discrimination	in classical conditioning, the learned ability to distinguish between a conditioned stimulus and stimuli that do not signal an unconditioned stimulus	7
8726521826	social learning theory	a model that states that we leans social behavior by observing and imitating and by being rewarded or punished	8
8726521827	operant conditioning	a type of learning in which behavior is strengthened if followed by a reinforcer or diminished if followed by a punisher	9
8726521828	law of effect	Thorndike's principle that behaviors followed by favorable consequences become more likely, and that behaviors followed by unfavorable consequences become less likely	10
8726521829	operant chamber	in operant conditioning, a box containing a bar or key that an animal can manipulate to obtain a food or water reinforcer; AKA Skinner box	11
