CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -After such a temporal pairing has occurred repeatedly, the conditioned stimulus itself produces a response. This learned response is known as the conditioned response (CR) and it can occur even in the absence of the unconditioned stimulus.

Detailed explanation-2: -The process of learning a conditioned response is called acquisition. Usually, conditioning is faster if only a short time elapses between the presentation of the CS and the UCS. The reverse process-that is, unlearning-can occur also and is called extinction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Simply put, a conditioned stimulus makes an organism react to something because it is associated with something else. For example, Pavlov’s dog learned to salivate at the sound of a bell. In classical conditioning, the conditioned response (CR) is the learned response to the previously neutral stimulus.

Detailed explanation-4: -Pavlov had identified a fundamental associative learning process called classical conditioning. 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.

Detailed explanation-5: -Conditioned Stimulus (CS): Previously neutral stimulus that elicits a response after being paired with the UCS. Conditioned Response (CR): Learned response to CS after pairing of UCS-CS. Similar to the UCR.
