What term was used to indicate the dog's salivation when the meat powder was placed on its tongue?

unconditioned response


John b Watson pictures of baby albert experiment?

John B. Watson, after observing children in the field, was interested in finding support for his notion that the reaction of children, whenever they heard loud noises, was prompted by fear. Furthermore, he reasoned that this fear was innate or due to an unconditioned response


In a conditioning experiment what behavioral state is reached when the stimulus no longer evokes a response?

Denying the expected reward for response to a stimulus will eventually result in the "extinction" of the conditioned behavioral response.


What is Pavlov's experiment into the conditioning of dogs?

Pavlov would ring a bell then feed his dogs. He did this for a long time. Then whenever he would ring the bell his dogs would begin to salivate (drool) in anticipation of their food. Basically, he trained his dogs so that they associated the sound of the bell with receiving their food, and therefore whenever they heard a bell they anticipated food and began to drool. It's "conditioned" response, not "unconditional." Conditioned means that they would just give that response naturally, not like "trained" behavior in which the dog would know that "sit" meant he should sit down, and then do it voluntarily. The dog was not thinking, "OK, there's a bell, so that means I should drool now." The drooling (salivating) would happen all by itself. I mean, a human can sit on purpose, right? but you can't drool on purpose, except by thinking about food.


What are the main methods and concepts in paleontology?

There are 2 main scientific methods that explain ethology. 1 is classical ethology, and the other is animal pychology. Classical ethology as explained by Charles Darwin says that animal have an inate or instinctual ability to survive. There behaviors are not taught ,but automatically known. There is a pre- programed gene in which these animals access the ability to survive natural selection. Animal pychology the role of learning. As seen Pavlovs bell, animals have the ability to learn. The can connect a conditioned stimuli with an unconditioned response, and thus create a conditioned response. This is a long process, but animals can and have shown the ability to associate and learn new things. Behaviorism which originated with John B. Watson is the belief that behaviors can be measured, trained, and changed. This is stimulus Response, the muscular, and glandular response that we can observe.

In pavlovs experiment with dogs in which he demonstrated classincal conditioning what term defines the dogs salivation in response to only rhe ringing of the bell?

The term that defines the dogs' salivation in response to only the ringing of the bell is "conditioned response." This means that the dogs have learned to associate the bell with food, leading to salivation even when food is not present.


What is the difference between a unconditioned response and a conditioned response?

An unconditioned response is automatic and unlearned, triggered by a specific stimulus. A conditioned response, on the other hand, is learned through association with a neutral stimulus that was previously paired with an unconditioned stimulus.


What are the elements of classical conditioning of psychology?

Classical conditioning involves the pairing of a neutral stimulus with an unconditioned stimulus to create a conditioned response. The key elements include an unconditioned stimulus that naturally triggers a response, a neutral stimulus that initially does not elicit a response, and the pairing of the two stimuli to produce a conditioned response. Over time, the neutral stimulus alone can evoke the conditioned response.


In Pavlov's experiment with dogs in which he demonstrated classical conditioning, what term was used to indicate the dog's salivation when the meat powder was placed on its tongue?

unconditioned response


Example of unconditioned stimulus?

Unconditioned Stimulus is an event or thing that automatically triggers a response. an example would be. when you smell your favorite food cooking, your mouth may salivate. the smell is an unconditioned stimulus which, in turn, brings rise to the salivating (unconditioned or conditioned response).


What is the response that occurs before any conditioning has taken place?

The unconditioned response.


Examples of unconditioned response?

An unconditioned response is a response that is natural and occurs without behavioral conditioning. Examples would be: Someone jumping when they are startled A dog salivating when it is receiving food or a treat


What could john have done to eliminate little alberts condition fear?

unconditioned response


What stimulus elicits a response because of an innate or reflexive connection is called?

If I'm not mistaken, Unconditioned stimulus(UCS) is a term used in classical conditioning, to explain a stimulus that elicits a reflexive response, also termed the Unconditioned response(UCR) without/before any learning or conditioning.


What were the results to the little albert experiment?

The Little Albert experiment showed that classical conditioning could be used to create a fear response in a child by pairing a neutral stimulus (a white rat) with a loud noise. This experiment demonstrated that fear responses could be learned through conditioning and generalized to other similar stimuli.


What can happen if a conditioned stimulus is repeated over and over without being paired with an unconditioned stimulus?

Nothng. No response is elicited to the conditioned stimulus because it is not associated with an unconditioned stimulus.


What must be paired together for classical conditioning to occur?

For classical conditioning to occur a neutral stimulus must be paired with an unconditioned stimulus. The neutral stimulus is initially meaningless to the organism but becomes associated with the unconditioned stimulus after the two are repeatedly paired together. This process of association is known as classical conditioning. The following are the components needed for classical conditioning to occur: A neutral stimulus An unconditioned stimulus A response ReinforcementThe neutral stimulus is something that does not initially produce a response. It is usually a sound taste or smell. The unconditioned stimulus is something that naturally produces a response. It is usually a food or something that causes pain or discomfort. The response is the reaction to the unconditioned stimulus such as salivating or flinching. Reinforcement is the use of rewards or punishments to strengthen the association between the neutral stimulus and the unconditioned stimulus.
