PSY 310 - Conditioning and Learning
Description
An introduction to the process by which human and animal behavior changes as a function of experience. Examines basic mechanisms for learning (including habituation, sensitization, and classical and operant conditioning) and explores the scientific and practical application of these mechanisms to explain and predict behavior. Discusses the extent to which learning mechanisms are consistent across species, and how the physiology, natural environment, and social systems of individual species interact with basic learning processes to produce different behavioral outcomes. Same as BFB 310.
