Learning Spanish in High School… Did you use flashcards? …learning the La Calavera means Learning Spanish in High School… Did you use flashcards? …learning the La Calavera means skull Let's say it took 10 trials to learn this association When did the bulk of the learning actually take place? In the first or last trials? In the middle?

Most of the associative learning occurs during the first few trials During the last Most of the associative learning occurs during the first few trials During the last trials, very little is added to the strength of the association Rescorla/Wagner Model attempted to explain the growth of association mathematically with the equation

Rescorla-Wagner Model What is a model? . . should be able to: Explain behavior Rescorla-Wagner Model What is a model? . . should be able to: Explain behavior & also Predict it! conditioning blocking Extinction Simple mathematical account of how associative strength – conditioning builds up over the course of a learning experiment learning curve

During Conditioning – CS/UCS Learning Curves During Conditioning – CS/UCS Learning Curves

Rescorla-Wagner Model Mathematical Equation Vn = c (Vmax – Vn) = Delta (change) V Rescorla-Wagner Model Mathematical Equation Vn = c (Vmax – Vn) = Delta (change) V = Strength of Association n = trial c = constant (speed of conditioning - 0 -1) Vmax = asymptote (no more trials- max strength of association) Vn = the strength of association at the beginning of the trial Predicts the precise associative strength in each trial

V = Strength of Association n = trial c = constant (speed of conditioning V = Strength of Association n = trial c = constant (speed of conditioning – 0 -1) Vmax = asymptote (no more trials- max learning) Vn = the strength of association at the beginning of the trial Amount of conditioning for 1 st trial Vn = c(Vmax – Vn) Add

V = Strength of Association Can also account for extinction n = trial C V = Strength of Association Can also account for extinction n = trial C = constant (maximal performance) Vmax = asymptote (best learning – if a CS with UCS is paired) Vn = the strength of association at the beginning the trial Vn = c(Vmax – Vn) …no more pairing of UCS with CS 5 ? ?

First Conditioning Trial 1 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 - 0) First Conditioning Trial 1 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 - 0) = 50 Vn

Second Conditioning Trial 2 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 - 50) Second Conditioning Trial 2 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 - 50) = 25 Vn

Third Conditioning Trial 3 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 - 75) Third Conditioning Trial 3 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 - 75) = 12. 5 Vn

4 th Conditioning Trial 4 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 – 4 th Conditioning Trial 4 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 – 87. 5) = 6. 25 Vn

5 th Conditioning Trial 5 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 - 5 th Conditioning Trial 5 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 - 93. 75) = 3. 125 Vn

6 th Conditioning Trial 6 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 - 6 th Conditioning Trial 6 c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (100 - 96. 88) = 1. 56 Vn

1 st Extinction Trial c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (0 - 99. 1 st Extinction Trial c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (0 - 99. 61) = -49. 8 Trial 1 Vn Vn 99. 61 – 49. 8 = 49. 8

2 nd Extinction Trial c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (0 - 49. 2 nd Extinction Trial c (Vmax - Vn) = ∆Vn. 5 (0 - 49. 8) = -24. 9 Trial 2 Vn Vn

Importance of Model • Only mathematical model of behavior • Best Theory of Classical Importance of Model • Only mathematical model of behavior • Best Theory of Classical Conditioning • Early trials more “learning occurs” Kamin (1969)…The amount of conditioning on any trial is determined not only by the UCS (shock) but also the expectation that the CS will occur…no surprise less learning (Kamin)…expect a shock…no learning PS: this model only works when the CS precedes the UCS It does not work so well for the backward sequencing of stimuli

Operant Conditioning vs Classical Conditioning In Classical Conditioning, the dog’s response has no consequences; Operant Conditioning vs Classical Conditioning In Classical Conditioning, the dog’s response has no consequences; it produces no change in the environment. The dog gets the food after the bell is rung whether or not he salivates to the bell. His behavior …response doesn’t matter. In Operant Conditioning, the dog has to pull the latch to get the food. His behavior does matter.

Operant Conditioning The nature of behavior is determined by its consequences whether positive or Operant Conditioning The nature of behavior is determined by its consequences whether positive or negative Learning occurs through reinforcements S----R So, in OC the reinforcer is contingent of the response = So, in CC the reinforcer is paired with a stimulus +

Radical Behavorism: Not a science but a philosophy… Did not rule out mentation, introspection, Radical Behavorism: Not a science but a philosophy… Did not rule out mentation, introspection, self-knowledge “…things that take place in the private world of the skin…” are observable…but cannot infer causes of behavior “The organism becomes a person [i. e. , a unique individual] as it acquires a repertoire of behavior under the contingencies of reinforcement to which it is exposed in its lifetime. The behavior it exhibits at any moment is under the control of a current setting. It is able to acquire such a repertoire because of processes of conditioning, to which it is susceptible because of its genetic endowment. “ (Skinner, 1974)
