3 Questions
What is classical conditioning?
Learning new responses through pairing of stimuli
What is the difference between unconditioned reflex and conditioned reflex?
Unconditioned reflex is automatic and involuntary, while conditioned reflex is a result of learning and experience
Who were the pioneers in classical conditioning?
Ivan Pavlov and John Watson
Study Notes
- Classical conditioning involves learning new responses through pairing of stimuli
- It focuses on automatic and involuntary responses
- The unconditioned reflex involves an unconditioned stimulus (US) and response (UR)
- The conditioned reflex results from learning and experience
- It involves a conditioned stimulus (CS) and response (CR)
- The NS becomes the CS after being paired with the US sufficiently
- The CR mimics the UR but is of lesser magnitude
- Classical conditioning is also known as respondent/stimulus-response/Pavlovian conditioning
- Ivan Pavlov studied reflexes and their links to stimuli
- Watson was also important in classical conditioning.
