Principles of Learning


Listen Later

Learning is traditionally defined as acquiring knowledge through study, experience, or being taught. In psychology, it is often defined as a relatively lasting change in behavior that results from experience. Learning is an ongoing process; we continue learning throughout our entire lives.

After listening to this AudioBrick, you should be able to:

  • Name and briefly describe the three major theories of learning.
  • Define classical conditioning, including unconditioned stimulus, unconditioned response, neutral stimulus, conditioned stimulus, and conditioned response.
  • Define operant conditioning and differentiate between positive reinforcement, negative reinforcement, positive punishment, and negative punishment.
  • Compare and contrast classical and operant conditioning.
  • Describe examples of social learning theory.
  • You can also check out the original brick on Principles of Learning from our Psychiatry collection, which is available for free.
