This document discusses different types of learning and provides an overview of classical conditioning. It describes 7 types of learning: motor, perceptual, manual skill, conceptual, appreciational, associate, and attitudinal. It then discusses the basics of learning as any relatively permanent change in behavior due to experience. The document focuses on Ivan Pavlov's classical conditioning experiments with dogs, where he conditioned them to salivate in response to a stimulus by pairing a bell with food. It explains how the bell became a conditioned stimulus that elicited the conditioned response of salivation.
1. Different Types of Learning
1. Motor Learning
2. Perceptual Learning
3. Manual skill Learning
4. Conceptual Learning
5. Appreciational Learning
6. Associate learning
7. Attitudinal learning
2. • Learning can be said as any relatively
permanent change in behavior or behavioral
potential produced by experience.
3. Features of learning
• 1. learning always involves some kind of
experience.
The behavioral changes that occur due to
learning are relatively permanent.
The change is due to continuous exposure to
stimuli. It is called habituation.
Drug and temporary change behavior is not
learning.
4. • So learning is what.
• It is any relatively permanent change in
behavior due to --------------------
• Change of behavior due to fatigue, drugs or
other intoxicants is not considered as -----------
-----------
• Learning is an ------------- process.
• Experience. Learning. Inferred.
5. How dose one learn.
• The simplest method of learning is called
conditioning.
• It is classical conditioning.
6. Ivan.P.Pavlov
• He was primarily interested in the physiology
of digestion.
• During his studies he noticed that dogs on
which he was doing his experiments started
secreting saliva as soon as they sighted the
empty plate in which food was served.
7. • Secretion of saliva is a reflexive response.
Study this.
• In the first phase a dog was placed in the box,
it they have repeated and done a surgery one
end of the tube was inserted in the dog’s jaw
and the other end of the tube was put in a
measuring glass.
8. • Second phase the dog was kept hungry and
placed in harness with one end of the tube in
the jaw and the other end in the glass jar. Now
a bell was sound then meat power was
served. The dog was allowed to eat it. this was
repeated for few days. After a number of
trails, a test was introduced in which
everything was the same expect the
presentation of the food.
9. • In the beginning the dog was secreting saliva
in response to the unconditioned stimuli.(US)
• After conditioning salvation started to occur in
the presence of the sound of the bell.(CS)
• This bell becomes a conditioned stimulus (CS)
and saliva secretion a conditioned response
(CR)
10. • It is obvious that the learning situation in
classical conditioning is one of S-S learning in
which one stimulus (e.g., bell sound) becomes
a signal for another stimulus (e.g., food). Here
one stimulus signifies the possible occurrence
of another stimulus.
11. Determinants of classical conditioning.
• Some of the major factors influencing learning
a CR are described below.
• 1. time relation between stimuli.
