Study Notes
Steps for Classical Conditioning
-
Step 1: Reflexive Response Pairing
- Start with a natural stimulus-response relationship.
- Example: Food (Stimulus) naturally causes Salivation (Response).
-
Step 2: Definitions of Stimulus and Response
- Food is termed as an Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS).
- Salivation is identified as an Unconditioned Response (UCR).
- Example relationship: Receives food (UCS) leads to Salivation (UCR).
-
Step 3: Introduction of Conditioned Stimulus
- The sight of an experimenter does not independently trigger salivation.
- Example sequence: Sight of Experimenter (Conditioned Stimulus, CS) plus Food (UCS) results in Salivation (UCR).
-
Step 4: Conditioned Response Development
- Over time, the subject learns to respond to the conditioned stimulus alone.
- Example: The sight of the experimenter alone leads to Salivation.
