No, stimulus is the cause and response is the effect. In feeding an animal, giving it food is the stimulus and it eating the food is the response.
This process is called classical conditioning, where a neutral stimulus is paired with an unconditioned stimulus until the neutral stimulus alone can produce the same response as the unconditioned stimulus. This creates a conditioned response, where the neutral stimulus now elicits the same response as the unconditioned stimulus.
The process that allows a second stimulus to cause the same response as the originally conditioned stimulus is called stimulus generalization. This occurs when similar stimuli to the conditioned stimulus also trigger the conditioned response.
stimulus
A neutral stimulus is a stimulus that initially does not elicit a specific response. In classical conditioning, the neutral stimulus becomes associated with a meaningful stimulus through repeated pairing, eventually causing the neutral stimulus to elicit the same response as the meaningful stimulus.
This is known as classical conditioning, a type of learning where a neutral stimulus becomes associated with an unconditioned stimulus to elicit a response. The neutral stimulus eventually becomes a conditioned stimulus that triggers the same response.
generalization.
Yes.
A stimulus is an external event that triggers a response in an organism. A response is the reaction or behavior that an organism exhibits as a result of a stimulus. In short, a stimulus is the input, while a response is the output.
A neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus through a process called classical conditioning. This happens when the neutral stimulus is paired consistently with an unconditioned stimulus that naturally elicits a response. Over time, the neutral stimulus begins to evoke the same response as the unconditioned stimulus, becoming a conditioned stimulus.
When a neutral stimulus acquires the ability to elicit a response by being repeatedly paired with an unconditioned stimulus, it becomes a conditioned stimulus through a process called classical conditioning. This process involves the neutral stimulus eventually triggering the same response as the unconditioned stimulus.
A response caused by a neutral stimulus is known as a conditioned response. This occurs when the neutral stimulus becomes associated with a unconditioned stimulus through conditioning, leading to a learned response.
An organism reacts to a stimulus with a response.
