Learning

One important type of learning, Classical Conditioning, was actually discovered accidentally by Ivan Pavlov ( ).  Pavlov was a Russian physiologist who discovered this phenomenon while doing research on digestion.  His research was aimed at better understanding the digestive patterns in dogs.

 During his experiments, he would put meat powder in the mouths of dogs who had tubes inserted into various organs to measure bodily responses.  What he discovered was that the dogs began to salivate before the meat powder was presented to them.  Then, the dogs began to salivate as soon as the person feeding them would enter the room.  He soon began to gain interest in this phenomenon and abandoned his digestion research in favour of his now famous Classical Conditioning study.

 Pavlov began pairing a bell sound with the meat powder and found that even when the meat powder was not presented, the dog would eventually begin to salivate after hearing the bell.  Since the meat powder naturally results in salivation, these two variables are called the unconditioned stimulus (UCS) and the unconditioned response (UCR), respectively.  The bell and salivation are not naturally occurring; the dog was conditioned to respond to the bell.  Therefore, the bell is considered the conditioned stimulus (CS), and the salivation to the bell, the conditioned response (CR).

 Basically, the findings support the idea that we develop responses to certain stimuli that are not naturally occurring.  When we touch a hot stove, our reflex pulls our hand back.  It does this instinctually, no learning involved. It is merely a survival instinct.  But why now do some people, after getting burned, pull their hands back even when the stove is not turned on?  Pavlov discovered that we make associations which cause us to generalize our response to one stimuli onto a neutral stimuli it is paired with.  In other words, hot burner = ouch, stove = burner, therefore, stove = ouch.

1. What observation led Pavlov to study classical conditioning? 2. Define and explain the role of each of the different kinds of stimuli and responses in classical conditioning- UCS, CS, UCR, CR. 3. Which of the stimuli is originally a neutral stimulus? Why is it called a neutral stimulus?
