What must be paired together for classical conditioning to occur?
Wiki User
∙ 7y ago
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
- Reinforcement
The 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.

In classical conditioning, how are the neutral stimulus and the CS related?
In which form of learning is behavior said to be influenced by its consequences?
associative learning - learning that certain events occur together. The events may be two stimuli (as in classical conditioning) or a response and its consequences (as in operant conditioning). operant conditioning - conditioning, we learn to associate a response (our behavior) and its consequence and thus to repeat acts followed by good results and avoid acts followed by bad results.
What way can classical conditioning to be most effective and long lasting?
When the conditioned stimulus isn't repeated constantly, it must be consistent but not too often. Also, the timing or sequence of the stimulus should be consistent, that is if for a conditioned response to occur a conditioned stimulus was applied within 2 seconds, it should always be applied within that 2 second window. So, to summarize, timing and consistency are the two factors for that should be satisfied for a classical conditioning to be effctive and long lasting.
Operant conditioning operates on the principle that behaviors occur more often when they are?

An Implication of Classical Condition?
1. Although the behavioural consequence of conditioning may appear to be merely the development of an anticipatory reflex, the underlying process is fundamental to learning about the relationship among environmental events. Sensory preconditioning tells us that when neutral stimuli co-occur, an association forms between them. Presumably, the informal equivalent of sensory preconditioning will be occurring all the time as an animal goes about its normal everyday business. Simply moving through the environment will expose the animal to sequences of events that go together, and the associations that form among them will constitute an important piece of knowledge - a 'map' of its world. 2. As a laboratory procedure, classical conditioning is important because it allows exploration of the nature of associative learning. The observed CR (salivation, pecking, or whatever) may not be of much interest in itself, but it provides a useful index of the otherwise unobservable formation of an association. Researchers have made extensive use of simple classical conditioning procedures as a sort of 'test bed' for developing theories of associative learning. Some of these will be described in a later section of this chapter. 3. As a mechanism of behavioural adaptation, classical conditioning is an important process in its own right. Although the CRs (such as salivation) studied in the laboratory may be trivial, their counterparts in the real world produce effects of major psychological significance. Here are two examples from the behaviour of our own species.

Is uracil always paired with adenine in double-stranded DNA?
No, Uracil doesn't occur in double stranded DNA. Doublestranded DNA contains Guanine paired with Cytosine and Adenine paired with Thymine. In RNA, however, Adenine is always paired with Uracil instead of Thymine.
What are the similarities between classical conditioning and one trial learning?
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.

Did the Industrial Revolution occur during the Classical period?
Yes
What are the difference between classical conditioning theory of learning and trial and error theory of learning?
Classical conditioning theory involves learning through associations between stimuli, where a neutral stimulus is paired with a naturally occurring stimulus to elicit a response. Trial and error theory of learning involves learning through repeated attempts and errors to achieve a desired outcome, with successful behaviors being reinforced and repeated. Classical conditioning focuses on involuntary responses, while trial and error learning involves voluntary actions.

Is condensation the same as cooling?
No it is not. Condensation does occur on the evaporator in an air conditioning system.
