Learning in everyday life
QUESTION
Habituation and Sensitization are simple forms of non-associative learning.
In your own words, further discuss what is meant by habituation and sensitization, and provide an example of how each of these two types of learning have occurred in your own life (or the life of someone you know).
In contrast to non-associative learning, classical conditioning is a simple form of associative learning. In your own words, further discuss what is meant by classical conditioning. In your opinion, can the principles of classical conditioning be used to explain many types of behavior? Explain your viewpoint, providing at least two (2) examples of classical conditioning that has occurred in your own life (or in the life of someone you know). In discussing your examples, be sure to use the appropriate terminology to describe the specific stimuli and responses involved. Please refrain from using taste aversion as an example, as it will be explored in DB2.2.
