Generalization of both excitatory and inhibitory conditioning can occur.
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
2
Generalization can be adaptive or maladaptive.
A)
TRUE
B)

4
A CS cannot serve as an occasion-setting stimulus.
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
5
A Pavlovian occasion-setter can facilitate operant responding.
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
6
Pavlovian-conditioned stimuli influence operant or instrumental behavior through their effects on the two central motivational states.
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
7
In the Hull-Spence model of discrimination learning, excitation develops to both discriminative stimuli but is greater to the s
Δ
.
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
8
Discrimination learning can occur without any error (that is, responding to the wrong stimulus).
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
9
A steep generalization gradient indicates responding to a wide range of stimuli.
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
10
Discrimination training produces flatter generalization gradients than nondiscrimination training.
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
11
In the peak-shift phenomenon, maximum responding occurs to a stimulus other than the s
D

Δ
.
A)
TRUE

FALSE
12
There is only one central motivational state.
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
13
Learning to differentiate S+ from other stimuli enhances generalization.
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
14
Evidence indicates that the s
Δ
acquires aversive properties except in errorless discrimination learning.
A)
TRUE
B)
FALSE
15
According to the noncontinuity position, discrimination learning proceeds slowly until excitation and inhibition are fully established.
A)
TRUE
