Classical Conditioning Over the last 100 years classical conditioning evolved from a simple transfer of one stimuli to another to more complex studies of conditioning. Researchers still use classical conditioning today as a method used to study associative learning (Terry‚ 2009). Classical conditioning has several levels: Behaviorally - is learning of a new response‚ cognitively - is to gain knowledge between the stimuli’s relationships‚ and neutrally - is the synaptic changes that motivate

The theory of classical conditioning accidentally discovered by Ivan Pavlov when he began researching dog’s salivation reflexes to meat powder stimuli. Classical conditioning consists of five main principles‚ the unconditioned stimulus (UCS)

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
