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.

Difference between extinguished behavior and intermittent reinforcement of a behavior?
Extinction (in classical conditioning) is the reduction of a learned response that occurs because the conditioned stimulus is no longer paired with the unconditioned stimulus. Also, the procedure of repeatedly presenting a conditioned stimulus without the unconditioned stimulus. Intermittent reinforcement of behavior is a schedule of reinforcement in which only some of the occurrences of the instrumental response are reinforced. The instrumental response is reinforced occasionally, or intermittently.
What was the bell's ring called prior to being paired with the presentation of the meat powder in Pavlov's experiment with dogs in which he demonstrated classical conditioning?
Conditioned stimulus.It was called a neutral stimulus because it was neutral, and a stimulus.unconditioned responseNOTconditioned stimulusunconditioned response (A+)conditioned response
How are generalization and discrimination related to classical conditioning?
Generalization occurs when an animal responds to a second stimulus similar to the original BS without prior training with the second stimulus. Discrimination is the ability to respond differently to different stimuli.These two processes are related to classical conditioning because associations are being made between a neutral stimulus and an unconditioned stimulus, thus, allowing the subjects to learn.
What are the differences between classical and operant conditioning theories?
In classical conditioning a stimulus that already leads to a response is replaced by a different stimulus. In operant conditioning a behaviour is picked out and either reinforced or punished to make it more or less common. So you could say one acts to modify or replace the stimulus that leads to a given response, and the other to modify or refine a response with SKELETONS. In terms of Pavlov's dog (classical) this meant replacing the smell of food, as the stimulus that leads to salivation, with the sound of a bell instead so that eventually even with the sound of the bell alone the dog has 'learned' to salivate. In terms of Skinner's cat (operant) the stimulus was confinement and the natural behaviour was to explore the environment for an escape. Teaching the cat to press the lever to get out can be seen as refining this behaviour with a reward. Here, of course, the cat was not shown how to press the lever. It discovered it randomly on it's own. But thereafter it did not waste much time before pressing the lever on the SKELETON.
How do basic and learned or acquired reflexes differ?
learned or acquired reflex - a reflex which is learned through practice or repetition and may involve both a far more complicated set of triggering stimuli and a far more complicated pattern of motor response, e.g., the reflexive motor actions produced after one has learned to ride a bicycle or drive a car; most such reflexes are somatic because they involve complex response patterns from skeletal muscles. While an unlearned reflex is like breathing
When a person feels heat of a stove is that a stimulus or a response?
I think that it would be a stimulus because response is something you do because of a stimulus.
An example of an innate stimulus-response connection is?
shivering because of the cold, or sneezing if something is in your nose! It's innate because it's something that you do subconsciously, without the need to think about it!
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.
Why Response time increased when the subject had to react to a word stimulus?
because they were distracted
What is a change in an organism's surrounding that causes the organism to react?
The answer to this would mose probabaly be a stimulus. Because there are 2 types of stimuli Internal Stimulus and External Stimulus and so it has to be either one of these but the answer is stimulus.

How are a stimulus and a response related?
They are directly related. Homeostasis is an environments ability to maintain stbility in a regular cycle, but when something new is introduced, the environment is able to respond to a new occurance, or stimulus, and responds in order to survive and return to maintaining a normal cycle. Without response to a new stimulus, environments would be unable to maintain homeostasis and would die out!
What is an example of a stimulus?
Hitting the skin with a needle or pin is an example of stimulus and the sudden removing of the hand or jumping away is the response. When we hold a hot plate of pie Mommy cooked with love, we all of a sudden fling our hand away from it. Holding the plate here is a stimulus and the removal of hand is the response. && Bang! You jump because the sound startled you. You jumping is the response to the stimulus. Or touching a hot plate your response is you pull your finger back. a gazelle seeing a lion so it runs its raining so you get an umbrella its snowing so you get a jacket a dog is hot so it goes under the shade
What does reflexsive mean?
Reflexive refers to an action where the subject and object of the verb are the same. In other words, the action reflects back onto the subject. For example, "I hurt myself" is a reflexive action because the subject 'I' is both the doer and receiver of the action.
Why do you lag playing online xbox live after buying the call of duty modern warfare 2 stimulus map pack?
because you get badd connection.
Pavlov's experiment was a typical case of classical conditioning because?
Classical conditioning is a learning process that occurs through associations between an environmental stimulus and a naturally occurring stimulus. In Pavlov's experiment the tone of a bell was the natural stimulus, and it caused salivating in response to food. Eventually the tone of the bell would produce salivating.
Is theirself a reflexive pronoun?
no because their is already plural
