A cat is classically conditioned to purr when it hears the refrigerator door open,because it contains the cat food.But the cat does not purr when it hears the pantry door open.The fact that the cat only purrs when the refrigerator door opens is most likely a result of:_________.
A) stimulus discrimination.
B) spontaneous recovery.
C) stimulus generalization.
D) extinction.
Answer:
A. stimulus discrimination
Explanation:
Stimulus discrimination -
Discrimination for stimulus refers to the practice or the ability to differentiate between two different stimulus , is referred to as the stimulus discrimination .
The ability of stimulus discrimination is derived from the method of stimulus generalization .
In simple terms , it refers to the ability or the tendency of the living organism to react or respond to only particular stimuli , is referred to as stimulus discrimination .
Hence , from the given scenario of the question ,
The correct answer is stimulus discrimination .
Final answer:
The cat's behavior of purring only when it hears the refrigerator door is due to stimulus discrimination, where it has learned to distinguish this sound as predicting food from other similar but non-food-related sounds.
Explanation:
The cat only purrs when it hears the refrigerator door open because it is demonstrating stimulus discrimination. This occurs when an organism learns to respond only to the original conditioned stimulus and not to other similar stimuli. For instance, the cat has learned to associate the sound of the refrigerator door, which typically contains its food, with being fed, and therefore it purrs. However, it does not purr when it hears the pantry door because it has learned that this sound is not associated with the arrival of food. This is different from stimulus generalization, where the organism would respond to similar stimuli, spontaneous recovery, which involves the reappearance of a conditioned response after a period of lessened response, and extinction, which involves the weakening of the conditioned response when the unconditioned stimulus is no longer presented with the conditioned stimulus.
Michelle notices her brother Mark eating a second piece of chocolate from a box of candy. Because he rarely eats candy of any kind, Michelle concludes that Mark must really like the chocolate. In this instance, Michelle is relying on ____________ information to explain her brother’s behavior.
Answer:
Distinctiveness.
Explanation:
As the exercise exemplifies, Michelle is most likely relying on distinctiveness information in order to explain her brother's behavior. This is due to the fact that distinctiveness focuses on what makes something different or unique, distinct from other things. If Mark generally does not like chocolate, it is fair to assume that if he is eating one it's because it's really tasty. Therefore, even if it's chocolate (something he would not eat) it has to be different from other types of chocolate he has eaten before.
Which statement is likely to be associated with inelastic supply? Consumers are willing to pay any price for the good. The inputs necessary for production cannot readily be increased. The good is necessary for survival (e.g., a life-saving drug). The time period under consideration is very long.
Answer: The good is necessary for survival (e.g., a life-saving drug)
Explanation:
INELASTIC SUPPLY
This means that the quantity of goods produced does not react too much to the good changing price.
Normally market forces demand that should the price of a good change, there must be a corresponding change in supply but for inelastic goods, the change is either not there or not too much.
Goods necessary for survival however are usually produced regardless of their price because people will still buy them. Not to mention, the availability of such goods is usually monitored by governments who ensure that as many people as possible can get a chance at survival by keep production levels constant.
