Most voluntary behaviour is an example of operant behaviour.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Operant behavior refers to behavior that is influenced by its consequences. In other words, individuals engage in voluntary behavior because they expect certain outcomes or rewards from their actions. Most voluntary behavior falls under this category, as individuals choose to engage in certain behaviors based on the consequences they anticipate. Therefore, the statement that most voluntary behavior is an example of operant behavior is true.Rate this question:

If the subject is given information about some aspect of his or her physiological state and reinforced for altering the state, what is this known as?
-
Memetic feedback
-
Biological response conditioning
-
Biofeedback training
Correct Answer
A. Biofeedback trainingExplanation
Biofeedback training is the correct answer because it refers to a process where individuals receive information about their physiological state and are then reinforced for making changes to that state. This training allows individuals to learn how to control their bodily functions, such as heart rate or muscle tension, through the use of feedback from monitoring devices. It is a form of conditioning that helps individuals become more aware of their physiological processes and learn how to regulate them.Rate this question:

Learning is a relatively permanent change in behaviour that occurs as a result of prior experience.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Learning refers to the process of acquiring knowledge or skills through experience, study, or teaching. It involves a change in behavior, which means that individuals are able to apply what they have learned in different situations. This change is considered relatively permanent because once learning has occurred, it is not easily forgotten. Therefore, the statement that learning is a relatively permanent change in behavior that occurs as a result of prior experience is true.Rate this question:

Skinner conducted the experiments with the ringing of bells to produce salivation in dogs.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
Skinner did not conduct experiments with the ringing of bells to produce salivation in dogs. This statement is a misattribution as it is actually associated with Ivan Pavlov's classical conditioning experiments. Skinner, on the other hand, is known for his work on operant conditioning, where he studied the effects of reinforcement on behavior.Rate this question:

A dog salivating when it tastes meat is known as a conditioned response.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
This statement is false because a dog salivating when it tastes meat is actually an unconditioned response. It is a natural and automatic reaction to the taste of meat, without any prior conditioning or training. A conditioned response, on the other hand, is a learned response that occurs as a result of conditioning or training.Rate this question:

Latent learning is any learning that is not demonstrated by behaviour at the time of the learning.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Latent learning refers to the acquisition of knowledge or skills that are not immediately apparent in behavior. It suggests that learning can occur without any immediate reinforcement or observable change in behavior. This means that even though an individual may not demonstrate their learning at the time it occurs, the knowledge or skills can still be acquired and may be later displayed in behavior when a suitable incentive or situation arises. Therefore, the statement "True" accurately reflects the concept of latent learning.Rate this question:
