We refer to a conditioning stimulus and conditioned response. The conditioning stimulus is feedback that creates, enhances or intensifies a reaction, which is the conditioned response. In a famous series of experiments by Dr. Ivan Pavlov in the late 19th Century, dogs drooled when he gave them food and rang a bell rung at the same time. After awhile the dogs drooled at just the sound of the bell. The sound of the bell was the conditioning stimulus, and the physiological reaction of salivation in the dogs was the conditioned response.
Classical conditioning is best known by Pavlov's dogs. This type of conditioning takes a neutral stimulus and makes a person or animal respond to it. Operant conditioning uses punishment to get a behavior to stop.
CLASSICAL CONDITIONING ONE TRIAL LEARNING Requires a number of associations between the UCS and NS Quickly acquired Can extinguish relatively quickly Resistant to extinction The UCS is presented immediately after the CS The CR (feeling sick) can occur hours or days after the CS (food) but an association between the two is still made Stimulus generalization may occur Stimulus generalization rarely occurs you can use almost any stimulus in c.c in o.t.l food is nearly the only effective stimulus.
When the condition stimulus is presented unpaired with the unconditioned stimulus, the conditioned stimulus may cease to evoke the conditioned response. This process is called behavioral extinction.
stimulus
A stimulus is not a reaction, a stimulus is what causes a reaction.
Backward conditioning is a type of classical conditioning in which the conditioned stimulus is presented after the unconditioned stimulus. This is less effective than forward conditioning because the CS lacks predictive value if it follows the US.
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.
The bell before the conditioning is the Neutral Stimulus (NS). During the conditioning the bell is still the Neutral Stimulus (NS), and after conditioning, the bell then becomes the Conditioned Stimulus (CS).
conditioned response. The conditioned stimulus is a previously neutral stimulus that, after being paired with an unconditioned stimulus, goes on to trigger a response.
Classical conditioning.
Trace conditioning occurs when there is a temporal gap between the conditioned stimulus (CS) and the unconditioned stimulus (US), meaning the CS ends before the US is presented. This type of conditioning relies on short-term memory and typically involves a brief delay between the end of the CS and the onset of the US.
Pavlov identified the five conditioning processes as acquisition, extinction, spontaneous recovery, generalization, and discrimination. These processes describe how learned behaviors are acquired, maintained, and may change over time.
the neutral stimulus should precede the unconditioned stimulus by a fraction of a secong
In classical conditioning, the pairing of the conditioned stimulus (CS) with the unconditioned stimulus (US) will result in the CS becoming a conditioned stimulus that elicits a conditioned response similar to the unconditioned response that was originally triggered by the US.
acquisition
Neutral stimulus is a stimulus which initially produces no specific response other than focusing attention. In classical conditioning
