Fixed Reinforcement Schedule
Definition
A fixed reinforcement schedule, also known as a fixed-interval (FI) schedule, is a type of operant conditioning technique where a desired behavior is rewarded only after a specific amount of time has passed, regardless of how many times the behavior is performed during that interval.
Flight Response
Definition
The flight response, also known as the fight-or-flight response, is a physiological and psychological reaction to a perceived threat. It's an automatic survival mechanism that prepares your body to flee from danger. Like the fight response, it involves complex changes in your body and mind to help you escape a threatening situation.
Freeze Response
Definition
The freeze response, also known as immobility, tonic immobility, or playing dead, is another automatic survival mechanism triggered by perceived threats. Unlike the fight-or-flight response, which prepares you to either confront or flee danger, the freeze response involves becoming completely still and shutting down.
Germaine Load
Definition
Germane load is the good kind of cognitive load! It refers to the mental effort used to actually learn and schematize new information. This is where the real magic of learning happens, as your brain constructs connections between existing knowledge and new concepts, building a deeper understanding and solidifying memory.
