    Classical Conditioning

    Pavlov's early work in classical conditioning influenced the understanding of learning. Classical conditioning refers to learning that occurs when a neutral stimulus becomes associated with an unconditioned stimulus that naturally produces a response. The concepts include the unconditioned stimulus which triggers a natural response, the unconditioned response, the conditioned stimulus which comes to trigger the response, and the conditioned response which is the same as the unconditioned response but triggered by the conditioned stimulus. Extinction occurs when the conditioned stimulus is no longer paired with the unconditioned stimulus, generalization is when the conditioned stimulus elicits similar responses to other stimuli, and discrimination is the ability to differentiate between conditioned and unconditioned stimuli.

    What is Classical Conditiong?

    In the early part of the 20th century, Russian physiologist


    Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936), shown in Figure 8.2, was
    studying the digestive system of dogs when he noticed an
    interesting behavioural phenomenon: the dogs began to
    salivate when the lab technicians who normally fed them
    entered the room, even though the dogs had not yet
    received any food. Pavlov realized that the dogs were
    salivating because they knew that they were about to be
    fed; the dogs had begun to associate the arrival of the
    technicians with the food that soon followed their
    appearance in the room.

    Classical Conditioning refers to learning that occurs when


    a neutral stimulus (e.g., a tone) becomes associated with a
    stimulus (e.g., food) that naturally produces a behaviour.

    Concepts of Classical Conditioning

    There are concepts involved in this type of behavioral


    approach to learning. The unconditioned stimulus (US)
    is something (such as food) that triggers a naturally
    occurring response, and the unconditioned response
    (UR) is the naturally occurring response (such as
    salivation) that follows the unconditioned stimulus. The
    conditioned stimulus (CS) is a neutral stimulus that,
    after being repeatedly presented prior to the
    An example of it is astudent experienced to be hit by his teacher
    once so the generalization happened is whenever he saw his teacher
    or anyone coing with a stick he will have a feeling that he will be
    beaten up.
    Stimulus Discrimination

    is the ability to differentiate between a conditioned stimulus and


    other stimuli that have not been paired with an unconditioned
    stimulus.

    An example of this is the bell that rings during recess and dismissal
    time. A student can recognized the sound of the bell at 9 am then
    automatically it means recess, while if it rings at 12 noon then
    means dismissal time for lunch.

    Roles of extinction, generalization, and


    discrimination play in conditioned learning
    EXTINCTION PHASE
    this happens when a conditioned stimulus is no longer paired with
    an unconditioned stimulus.

    Example if a teacher have used to say that whenever her student is


    talkative she will kick her out but as many times hs her student been
    talkative she did not kicked our the student hence there is an
    extinction hapoen for the student would not believe her anymore an
    will continue the behavior inside the classroom.
    Stimulus Generalization

    is the tendency for the conditioned stimulus to evoke similar


    responses after the response has been conditioned.
    Exercises and Critical Thinking
    1. Teacher Ann put stars on the board when the students are quiet and
    attentive. Eventually, the students start becoming quiet and attentive
    whenever she approach theboard. Can you explain the students’
    behaviour in terms of classical conditioning?
    2. Recall a time in your life, perhaps when you were a child, when your
    behaviours were influenced by classical conditioning. Describe in
    detail the nature of the unconditioned and conditioned stimuli and the
    response.
