1)Learning and Memory|Learned Behaviour|Types of learning|Habituation|Imprinting|Conditioned Reflex| Ethology Neurophysiology Animal behaviour Learned behaviors stand in opposition to innate behaviors: while learned behaviors may have an innate component, they allow the organism to modify its behavior according to environmental factors or previous experiences. Habituation is a simple form of learning in which an animal stops responding to a stimulus after a period of repeated exposure; it is a form of non-associative learning, as the stimulus is not associated with any punishment or reward. Imprinting is a type of learning that occurs at a particular age or a life stage that is rapid and independent of the species involved. Key Terms imprinting: any kind of phase-sensitive learning (learning occurring at a particular age or a particular life stage) that is rapid and apparently independent of the consequences of behavior habituation: a learned behavior involving modifying behavior according to the environment or previous expriences innate: inborn; native; natural
