CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -In classical conditioning, an unconditioned response is an unlearned response that occurs naturally in reaction to the unconditioned stimulus. 1 For example, if the smell of food is the unconditioned stimulus, the feeling of hunger in response to the smell of food is the unconditioned response.

Detailed explanation-2: -In classical conditioning, a conditioned response is a learned response to a previously neutral stimulus. For example, the smell of food is an unconditioned stimulus, a feeling of hunger in response to the smell is an unconditioned response, and the sound of a whistle when you smell the food is a conditioned stimulus.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fear Conditioning Examples What is this? In typical fear conditioning studies, a rat or rodent is not presented with the aversive stimulus in the home cage. The animal is then placed in a novel environment, provided aversive stimuli, e.g. mild electrical shock in the foot, and subsequently removed.

Detailed explanation-4: -An unconditioned response is an automatic response to a stimulus. 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.
