Course Description
This course will examine how “learning” is typically conceptualized as the product of special training or formal instruction and how the behavior of human and nonhuman animals is constantly modified through interactions with the environment, that are caused by “learning” as well and are necessary for survival. This course will focus on fundamental types of learning that occur without formal instruction. Also fundamentals of classical and instrumental conditioning as studied in a variety of species will be examined and then turn to more modern theories of learning. Students will explore how these principles influence diverse processes such as memory, attention, extinction, habituation, delayed gratification and in some cases, how they are implemented in the brain.
