Definition of Stimulus- Unconditioned stimulus Stimulus which reliably elicits a reflex-like response. E.g.‚ puff of air- eye blink‚ Pain- withdrawal‚ loud noise- startled response‚ food powder- salivation.

‘Classical conditioning provides us with a way to learn cause and effect relations between environmental events’ (Martin‚ Carlson and Buskist‚ 2010‚ pg 259). Classical conditioning is learning by association and is the main way in which we develop phobias. The main type being specific phobias which are generally influenced by genetics or a traumatic childhood event. There are three basic principles off classical conditioning which are important to be aware of when researching the development of phobias:

1. Fitness Conditioning Lambert (2015) states that muscle power‚ which plays a role in the interaction between the force of contraction and the speed of contraction‚ is related with the explosiveness of the muscle. The relationship between force and speed of contraction and the following point at which peak power occurs‚ differs between backline rugby players‚ as each backline player has a different body shape an different strengths and weaknesses. He then says that speed consists of a number of

The Little Albert Experiment was one of the most well known fear conditioning experiments. John B Watson showed that not only can humans be classically conditioned‚ but also furthered Pavlov’s research by show that emotions can be classically conditioned. Watson exposed a nine-month-old baby to various white stimuli such as: rats‚ rabbits‚ monkeys‚ etc. He observed that the child showed no fear towards the stimuli‚ but then whenever the child was exposed to the white stimuli followed by a loud noise

Green Light Go‚ Red Light Stop Classical conditioning shapes many of society’s common‚ everyday tasks. Whether we know it or not‚ many actions we do numerous times a day are a direct result of classical conditioning. To better understand why we act the way we do in society‚ classical conditioning must be defined and described. Classical conditioning is defined as: a process by which a previously neutral stimulus acquires the capacity to elicit a response through association with a stimulus

Instrumental Conditioning Introduction Instrumental conditioning was introduced by B.F. Skinner as a learning process with an rewards and punishment system. This type of system is set up to enforce or reinforce the punishment system that is in place to decrease the possibility that a behavior will happen again later in the future. In instrumental conditioning there are some components that will be discussed like positive reinforcers which means‚ if a person is good they will be awarded after

OPERANT CONDITIONING ELEMENTS -the likelihood that a behavior will occur is increased by reward (i.e.‚ REINFORCEMENT) and decreased by PUNISHMENT. PUNISHMENT - introduction of an aversive stimulus aimed at reducing the rate of an unwanted behavior. RE-INFORCEMENT - any event contingent upon the response of the organism that alters the likelihood of the response. - rewarded response are always strengthened but - punished responses do not always diminish POSITIVE RE-INFORCEMENT -any event

After learning two types of conditioning‚ namely: classical conditioning and operant conditioning‚ I felt really interested in getting to know both concept better by relating to my daily life habits. Now‚ I will describe a classical conditioning closely related to a type of Vietnamese tradition which most of Vietnamese people once experienced during their babyhood. In the past‚ every Vietnamese woman could sing a lullaby song for their babies in order to make them easily fall asleep. However‚ the

Classical conditioning is an association between two stimuli; It is what proceeds the response. The two stimuli in my experiment was the ringing of the bell and the on and off of the light switch performed in a dark room. During my experiment I rang the bell and then immediately turned off the lights. I remained in the dark for fifteen seconds then turned the light back on. I left the light on for fifteen seconds‚ and would monitor my pupils in the mirror then ring the bell and would simultaneously
