How can the conditioned response become extinct?

A conditioned response can become extinct by reverse conditioning. That is, if a dog has been conditioned to drool when he hears a bell, he can be conditioned not to drool when he hears the bell.The conditioned response in psychology may become extinct when the withdrawl of reinforcement happens.


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.


Is salivation a conditioned stimulus?

Salivation is a natural response to the presence of food (unconditioned stimulus) and is not typically considered a conditioned stimulus. However, in a classical conditioning context, salivation can become a conditioned response if it is consistently paired with a neutral stimulus (like a bell) that initially elicits no salivation, but comes to do so after repeated pairings with the food.


How does a neutral stimulus become a conditioned stimulus?

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.


Neutral stimulus is the same as what?

Neutral stimulus is the same as a conditioned stimulus before it has been paired with an unconditioned stimulus in classical conditioning. It is a stimulus that does not elicit a response initially, but can become a conditioned stimulus through association with an unconditioned stimulus.


What did Ivan Pavlov discover with regard to the digestive process of dogs?

Ivan Pavlov discovered that dogs could be conditioned to salivate not only in response to food, but also to neutral stimuli that were repeatedly paired with food. This led to the development of classical conditioning, a process in which a conditioned response is triggered by a previously neutral stimulus.


What did Ivan Pavlov discover with reguard to the digestive process of dogs?

When paired with an unconditional stimulus, a neutral stimulus can become a conditioned stimulus and produce the same response as the unconditioned stimulus.
