Unit 4 Review Psychology - Call List

(Print) Use this randomly generated list as your call list when playing the game. There is no need to say the BINGO column name. Place some kind of mark (like an X, a checkmark, a dot, tally mark, etc) on each cell as you announce it, to keep track. You can also cut out each item, place them in a bag and pull words from the bag.

  1. decreases behavior by removing a desired stimulus following that behavior
    negative punishment
  2. a reinforcer is given after a varying number of correct responses. Leads to lasting behavior change.
    variable ratio reinforcement
  3. memories occur at the unconscious level and influence our behavior without our awareness. like riding a bike
    implicit memory
  4. Conditioned response: everytime the bell rings, Rover salivates
    CR
  5. A reinforcer is given after a fixed number of positive responses. produces rapid steady learning.
    fixed ratio Reinforcement
  6. Learning by watching and mimicking others
    observational learning
  7. used to get a behavior to continue, but it involves taking away an undesired stimulus. For example, if a child takes out the garbage (behavior) and her mother stops nagging,
    negative reinforcement
  8. A reinforcer is given after a fixed period of time.The behavior changes rapidly and is anticipated as the fixed time draws closer.
    fixed interval reinforcement
  9. Learning using thought and reason
    insight learning
  10. something desired is added in order to get the behavior to happen again
    positive reinforcement
  11. A response is rewarded after an unpredictable time has elapsed. Slow steady rate of response. Waiting for a wave to surf.
    variable interval reinforcement
  12. memories that require some effort to recall sub categories are: working, episodic, semantic
    explicit memory
  13. a response that occurs naturally (like a reflex). Ex. Rover's salivating before the conditioning of the bell.
    UCR
  14. The bell becomes a conditioned stimulus once Rover begins salivating each time it rings.
    CS
  15. the stimulus that naturally evoked an action or behavior. Unconditioned stimulus: Ex. Rover's food
    UCS
  16. a learning process in which voluntary behavior is shaped by its consequences. EX. the Skinner Box.
    operant conditioning
  17. an organism only responds to the exact CS. Ex. nly afraid of german shepherds and not other dogs
    discrimination
  18. A distasteful stimulus follows a bad behavior and leads to a decrease in that behavior.
    positive punishment
  19. If a person sees a dog on the street after many years of no dog conflicts, they will likely have a fear reaction, but it will be less intense and will extinguish sooner than last time. This phenomenon is referred to as
    spontaneous recovery
  20. When stimulus comes to evoke the CR. The dog begins salivating to a bell without food present.
    acquisition
  21. Grouping information to increase the potential for short-term memory.
    chunking
  22. (acronyms, rhymes, and songs) can help bring meaning or organization where there wasn't any previously. Ex. Roy G Biv
    mnemonic device
  23. occurs when an organism responds to a second stimulus similar to the original CS without additional training or pairing with the second stimulus. Ex. having fear of all furry animals not just a dog.
    generalization
  24. When the reinforcement stops causing the gradual process of weakening (and the eventual disappearance) of the CR
    extinction
