2. Essential Question How is behavior influenced by one’s environment, and how do people process, store, and retrieve information?

3. Do-Now: (Create List in Journal) Consider the following stimuli: Consider the following stimuli: With what do you typically associate each stimuli? With what do you typically associate each stimuli? The sight of lightning = The sight of lightning = The sound of a loud buzzing drill = The sound of a loud buzzing drill = The taste of hot chocolate = The taste of hot chocolate = The smell of popcorn and cotton candy = The smell of popcorn and cotton candy = The feel of a brisk wind on your skin = The feel of a brisk wind on your skin =

4. Why do we associate? Why do we typically associate such events with one another? Why do we typically associate such events with one another? They typically occur with/as a result of one another They typically occur with/as a result of one another Natural Stimulus elicits Natural Response Natural Stimulus elicits Natural Response (e.g. lightning = “rain”) (e.g. lightning = “rain”)

5. Classical Conditioning Classical Conditioning: Classical Conditioning: Ivan Pavlov (Behavioral Psychologist) Ivan Pavlov (Behavioral Psychologist) Example of learning Example of learning A learning procedure in which associations are made between a natural stimulus and a neutral stimulus A learning procedure in which associations are made between a natural stimulus and a neutral stimulus E.g. Lightning (natural stimulus) elicits “rain” E.g. Lightning (natural stimulus) elicits “rain” E.g. Lightning (natural stimulus) and umbrellas (neutral stimulus) elicit “rain” E.g. Lightning (natural stimulus) and umbrellas (neutral stimulus) elicit “rain”

6. Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936)

7. Classical Conditioning (See Figure 9.1 “Classical Conditioning Experiment” pg. 243) Neutral Stimulus: Bell Neutral Stimulus: Bell Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS): Food Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS): Food Unconditioned Response (UCR): Salivation Unconditioned Response (UCR): Salivation Conditioned Stimulus (CS): Bell Conditioned Stimulus (CS): Bell Conditioned Response (CR): Salivation Conditioned Response (CR): Salivation

9. Why Study Classical Conditioning? Why might psychologists be interested in studying “Classical Conditioning” in humans and animals? Why might psychologists be interested in studying “Classical Conditioning” in humans and animals?

10. Classical Conditioning Purposes of Classical Conditioning: Purposes of Classical Conditioning: Key process of learning Key process of learning Helps humans and animals adapt to the environment Helps humans and animals adapt to the environment Helps humans and animals avoid danger Helps humans and animals avoid danger Provide an example of how Classical Conditioning acts in such ways Provide an example of how Classical Conditioning acts in such ways

11. Review What is Classical Conditioning? What is Classical Conditioning? How does it suggest that we learn? How does it suggest that we learn? Differentiate between the following: Differentiate between the following: Neutral Stimulus Neutral Stimulus Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS) Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS) Unconditioned Response (UCR) Unconditioned Response (UCR) Conditioned Stimulus (CS) Conditioned Stimulus (CS) Conditioned Response (CR) Conditioned Response (CR)
