Well, it is an experiment in behavioral psychology. The idea is that if we associate one thing with another (in this case, associate a bell with food), that eventually the same things will happen when the associated thing happens as when the original impetus happens. The dogs would start salivating when they saw their food... so they would ring a bell when the food came, and eventually, the dogs would start salivating when the bell rang... even when it was not accompanied by food.
The same thing happens in everyday life to a certain extent. For instance, someone who hates their job will get grumpy whenever they are at work... but they could also start to associate it with other things, like the whole company, the whole city, the whole state. Eventually "I hate California" would express that person's hatred of doing a particular thing or interacting with a particular person, because they have associated other things with whatever they detest. Whether it is worth addressing all of our associations and working through them or just moving to another state depends on the circumstances.

Why did Pavlovs dog salivate to a tone?
Pavlov's dog salivated to a tone because the tone had been repeatedly paired with the presentation of food. This led to the dog associating the tone with food, triggering a conditioned response of salivation even when food was not present.
What are direct observations?
Direct observation is an observation made by using your senses (hear, see, touch, taste, feel). In this case, the observer records directly what that are seeing. Contrary, an indirect observation is an observation made by observing the effects on the present surrounding. In this case, the observer would use the recordings of others (including self observation). In other words, what you can see directly versus what you can infer from another observation. Direct observation, as an example, would be seeing a dog and observing that he is there. Indirect observation, as an example, would be seeing the dog's paw prints in the snow and observing that he had been there.
A tentative explanation of a phenomena based on observations is called a?
hypothesis?
What was Pavlov's dog named?
There were 60 of them that had names, http://web.archive.org/web/20030429054601/http://www.cshl.edu/PDogs/ you can see the 60 names and photos of some of them at the website above. You can also see an article about Dr Tully who discovered the names from this article in Current Biology 2003 http://www.cshl.edu/Archive/pavlovs-flies-researchers-identify-fruit-fly-memory-mutants . This article has 10 of the dogs and their photos. Dr Kathleen Gerbasi Professor Psychology Niagara County Community College Sanborn NY
How do you use hypothesis in a sentence?
Scientists use hypothesis to make predictions about the outcome of an experiment based on prior knowledge or observations. For example, a hypothesis may state that "If plants receive more sunlight, then they will grow taller."
How is an observation used to form a hypothesis?
An observation are used to form hypothesis by forming a question of which the observation and then answering it accurately.
What is a hypothesis that does not explain an observation?
When you are using the scientific method, you would try to imagine a hypothesis which explains an observation, but you might not succeed. A hypothesis that does not explain an observation would be considered a failed hypothesis. You would then need to invent a different hypothesis.
Hypothesis?
Observation
Hypothesis it is a--------- based on observation and the knoledge of the topic.?
An hypothesis is a theory based on observation and the knowledge of the topic.
What is another name for the probability of observing a sample value at least as extreme as a given on under a null hypothesis?
The significance level of the observation - under the null hypothesis. The significance level of the observation - under the null hypothesis. The significance level of the observation - under the null hypothesis. The significance level of the observation - under the null hypothesis.
What integrated explanation of numerous hypothesis is known as?
A tentative explanation in research is called a hypothesis. The hypothesis is based on observation. The general explanation of the observation is called a theory. In other words, a theory is the result of testing a hypothesis.
What is The explanation of an observation is an?
Is hypothesis
Can a hypothesis be proven true?
No. A hypothesis is an educated guess, based on observation. Usually, a hypothesis can be supported or refuted through experimentation or more observation. A hypothesis can be disproven, but not proven to be true.
Is the observation the hypothesis?
no, hypothesis is sort of the fancy way of saying "guess" or "prediction". Observation is doing an experiment or observing (watching)
What is a hypothesis based on?
A hypothesis is based on you observation, and experiments on what you are going to do. If your hypothesis is wrong or doesn't match the results you had, you would need to modify it, so basically a hypothesis deals with prior knowledge.
A hypothesis is often developed out of?
a hypothesis is an educated guess of an observation about the world
What steps are involved in drawing in a conclusion?
1)initial observation 2)hypothesis 3)experiment 4)observation and analysis of data Between-hypothesis not supported New hypothesis New experiment New. Observation 5)Interpretation 6)Final hypothesis supported
