Question

True - False (3 points each; 1 point for correct response and 2 point for corrected response or explanation of why the statement is false. Total 75 points) 30) When looking at a graph depicting conditioning through the view of the Rescorla Wagner model, the growth of V is predicted to decrease as training trials progress, whereas A - V is predicted to increase as training trials progress. 31) When looking at a graph depicting learning through the view of the Rescorla Wagner model, the greatest amount of prediction error is said to occur early in training, when V is relatively low. In some sense, this means that the greatest amount of learning occurs when the organism makes faulty predictions. 32) According to the Rescorla-Wagner model, conditioned inhibition is more likely to occur if the organism receives an unexpectedly large US, whereas conditioned excitation is more likely to occur if the organism receives an unexpectedly small Us. 33) On the Blocking Effect, the Comparator Hypothesis would state that if we extinguish responding to CS2, we will see an unmasking of the conditioned response to CS1. Therefore, rather than learning being blocked, the expression of the conditioned response was blocked.

Explanation / Answer

30. False: According to the Rescorla-Wagner model, the difference between lambda and V will decrease as training trials progress.

31. True: According to the Rescorla-Wagner model, not much is learned when there are less prediction errors. So faulty predictions lead to more learning.

32. True: Predisposing the US to organism makes them relaxed.

33. True: Expression of conditioned response was blocked
