Learning is an experiential process. You do not need senses to learn.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
This statement is false because learning is indeed an experiential process, but it heavily relies on our senses. Our senses, such as sight, hearing, touch, taste, and smell, allow us to perceive and gather information from the environment. These sensory inputs are crucial for our brain to process and make sense of the world around us, enabling us to learn and acquire knowledge. Without our senses, the ability to learn would be greatly impaired or even impossible.Rate this question:

Learning results in a relatively permanent change as it can not be explained by temporary states, maturation, or innate response tendencies. What has been learned can be permanent, but it can also be temporary. (what can be learned can be unlearned)
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Learning results in a relatively permanent change because it is not influenced by temporary states, maturation, or innate response tendencies. This means that what is learned can be retained over time and is not easily forgotten. However, it is important to note that what has been learned can also be unlearned, indicating that learning is not always permanent and can be reversed or forgotten with time or lack of practice.Rate this question:

This refers to a natural process happening at a particular developmental period.
- A.
Innate Response
- B.
Temporary State
- C.
Maturation
Correct Answer
C. MaturationExplanation
Maturation refers to the natural process of development that occurs at a specific period. It involves the growth and progression of an organism, leading to physical and behavioral changes. Unlike innate response, which is an automatic and instinctive reaction, maturation is a gradual and ongoing process. It is also different from a temporary state, as maturation involves long-term and permanent changes. Therefore, maturation is the most appropriate explanation for a natural process happening at a particular developmental period.Rate this question:

Learning is not always a permanent change. What can be learned can be unlearned and this is useful for maladaptive behavior.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Learning is not always a permanent change because what can be learned can also be unlearned. This means that if someone acquires knowledge or skills that are not beneficial or adaptive, they have the ability to undo or reverse that learning. This is particularly useful for maladaptive behaviors, which are harmful or counterproductive actions or habits. By being able to unlearn these behaviors, individuals can replace them with more positive and adaptive ones, leading to personal growth and improvement. Therefore, the statement that learning is not always a permanent change and can be useful for maladaptive behavior is true.Rate this question:

This is the primitive way of learning. It is the decreased response to a stimulus after frequently repeated exposure.
- A.
Sensory adaptation
- B.
Habituation
- C.
Exploration
Correct Answer
B. HabituationExplanation
Habituation refers to the decreased response to a stimulus after repeated exposure. This is considered a primitive way of learning because it involves a simple form of adaptation to the environment. Through habituation, an individual becomes less responsive to a stimulus over time, as they become familiar with it. This allows the individual to conserve energy and focus on more important or novel stimuli. Sensory adaptation, on the other hand, refers to the physiological changes that occur in sensory receptors due to prolonged exposure to a stimulus. Exploration, while related to learning, does not specifically refer to the decreased response to a stimulus.Rate this question:

Refers to a treatment or process that diminishes emotional responsiveness to a negative, aversive or positive stimulus after repeated exposure to it.
- A.
Sensory Adaptation
- B.
Habituation
- C.
Desensitization
Correct Answer
C. DesensitizationExplanation
"adaptation refers to a decreased response of sensory receptors to a given stimulus intensity, and this is mostly a peripheral process.
