John Watson wanted to demonstrate the principles of classical conditioning by showing that fear could be conditioned in a child (Little Albert) through association with a loud noise (unconditioned stimulus). The experiment aimed to prove that emotions and behavior could be manipulated through conditioning.

What animal does Little Albert fear and why?
The rat. In order to prove his theory of classical conditioning Pavlov made Little Albert afraid of a white furry cloth which transferred to a rat. Every time Albert saw the white furry cloth it was paired to an event that would scare him. Eventually after many times of this all he had to do is see something that looked like the orginal item and he would be scared. So, this fear was transferred to a white rat.
What can an experiment prove that an observational study cannot?
An experiment can establish causation by manipulating variables and controlling for potential confounding factors, while an observational study can only show correlation. Experiments allow researchers to directly test hypotheses and determine the effects of specific interventions, providing stronger evidence for causal relationships. Additionally, experiments can help establish a cause-and-effect relationship with higher confidence due to their randomized controlled design.
How 4 matches from 7 by chance be 1 in 50 in natasha demkina experiment?
In the Natasha Demkina experiment, the probability of correctly matching 4 out of 7 matches by chance alone is approximately 1 in 50. This level of accuracy is considered statistically significant and suggests that Demkina's claims of having X-ray vision may have some merit. However, further controlled studies would be needed to definitively prove her abilities.
What did scientist learn by studying Albert Einstein's brain?
They found out that he had more folds in his brain, and therefore, he had a bigger and more developed brain than the average person. With more brains folds, he had more brain material than the typical person.

What can an experiment do?

How did your experiment prove or disprove the hypothesis?
That depends on the result of the experiment. The experiment is a way to test a hypothesis, and it's completely fine if the experiment disproves the hypothesis. Ideally, though, the experiment will support the hypothesis.
