CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The dogs salivating for food is the unconditioned response in Pavlov’s experiment. A conditioned stimulus is a stimulus that can eventually trigger a conditioned response. In the described experiment, the conditioned stimulus was the ringing of the bell, and the conditioned response was salivation.

Detailed explanation-2: -During Conditioning In Pavlov’s experiment, the neutral stimulus is the ringing of the bell. To condition the dogs to the bell, Pavlov paired the meat powder (UCS) with the bell (NS). Over time, the neutral stimulus started to elicit the salivation response in the dogs.

Detailed explanation-3: -The bell had become the conditioned stimulus and salivation had become the conditioned response. The dogs had learnt to associate the bell with the food and the sound of the bell and salivation was triggered by the sound of the bell. Pavlov showed that classical conditioning leads to learning by association.

Detailed explanation-4: -This is known as conditioned stimulus. In Pavlov’s experiment, ringing of the bell is a neutral stimulus. After becoming associated with the unconditioned stimulus like food, it become conditioned.

Detailed explanation-5: -In Pavlov’s experiment, a bell was paired with food presentation. The result was that the bell came to produce a reliable change in behavior, salivation. This new relation is called a conditioned reflex. It is “conditioned” in the sense that it depends on a prior relation between the bell and the food.
