FSU PSYC320 Quiz 4 Latest 2021
Question 1
Based on the information provided in the text, we can use the principles of extinguishing to
help drug addicts extinguish their habit. This is often done by using small amounts of their
drug during therapy, which allows the:
drug use to become a US.
addict to experience less withdrawal.
drug use to be part of the context.
addict to experience fewer cravings.
Question 2
If someone blows a puff of air into one's eyes, the person automatically blinks. In this
example, the puff of air is a(n):
unconditioned stimulus.
unconditioned response.
conditioned stimulus.
conditioned response.
Question 3
When the eyeblink reflex is conditioned using a tone, the puff of air is the:
unconditioned response.
conditioned response.
conditioned stimulus.
unconditioned stimulus.
Question 4
, Latent inhibition is problematic for the Rescorla–Wagner model because the model predicts
that there will be:
learning in the pre-exposure phase (phase 1).
learning in the training phase (phase 2).
no learning in the pre-exposure phase (phase 1).
no learning in the training phase (phase 2).
Question 5
When researchers gave animals an injection of an inert placebo to pre-expose them to the
contextual cues associated with drug use, they found that the animals:
formed an association between the context and drug use more slowly than normal.
formed an association between the context and drug use more quickly than normal.
formed an association between the context and drug use at the normal rate.
did not form an association between the context and drug use.
Question 6
Something that naturally elicits a reflexive response is called a(n):
conditioned response.
unconditioned stimulus.
unconditioned response.
conditioned stimulus.
Question 7
Lesion studies suggest that the interpositus nucleus is involved in _____, while the cerebellar
cortex is involved in _____.
computing the degree to which the US is unexpected; formation and execution of the CR
response timing; computing the degree to which the US is unexpected
formation and execution of the CR; response timing
