1. Objective: Define classical conditioning and behaviorism, and describe the basic components of classical conditioning. BR: Observe the following demo. Briefly describe what is happening

3. John B. Watson-Behaviorism Psychology should be something that is observable

4. Classical Conditioning-in which organisms learn to associate stimuli and thus anticipate events Unconditioned Response (UR) – A reflexive, natural behavior (dog drooling) Unconditioned Stimulus (US) – A stimulus that brings about unconditioned response (the food) Neutral Stimulus – Doesn’t initially bring about a response (what was it in the Pavlovian model?) Conditioned Response (CR) – Happens through repeated pairings of the neutral stimulus (bell) and the US (the food) Conditioned Stimulus (CS) – A previously neutral stimulus (the bell) is paired repeatedly with an US and begins to get a CR

5. Classical Conditioning Terms Acquisition: initial stage in learning – When dog drools first time of bell Extinction: The CR (drool) will gradually weaken and eventually disappear when CS (bell) is presented without the US (food) – Spontaneous Recovery: the CR (drool) will suddenly appear in response to a CS (bell)

6. Problems with Classical Conditioning Generalization: When response is conditioned, similar stimuli elicit conditioned response – Door bell rings dog drools Discrimination-learned ability to distinguish between a conditioned stimulus and other stimuli that are similar – Example: fear of pitbulls not golden retrievers
