The Role of Biology in Conditioning

Biological Predispositions Have you ever gotten sick after eating something? How eager were you to: Eat that same food again? Eat at that same place again? Eat wearing the same clothes? Eat with the same company? Your aversion is related to those things directly involved with your biological survival.

Remember Watson’s conditioning of Albert? Could he have just as easily conditioned that fear response to a flower or a piece of ribbon?

Probably not Humans and animals have certain biological predispositions that aide or hinder conditioning. Humans have an adaptive fear of things like snakes or other threatening animals “Snakes. I hate snakes.” - Indiana Jones

Biological Predispositions Martin Seligman said most common fears “are related to the survival of the human species through the long course of evolution” Taste Aversion the intense dislike and/or avoidance of particular foods that have been associated with nausea or discomfort biologically adaptive for survival

Biological Predispositions Garcia & Koelling Exposed rats to 3-way conditioned stimulus: bright light, clicking noise, flavored water One group was exposed to US producing nausea and vomiting several hours after exposure.

Biological Predispositions Garcia & Koelling Rats formed an association between nausea and flavored water ingested several hours earlier. Didn’t develop association between sound or light Animals are biologically predisposed to make associations: taste & food in rats, sight & food in birds, etc. Taste aversion works in humans

Biological Predispositions Scapegoat effect – wrong association People undergoing chemotherapy sometimes associate food they ate before treatment, or the place they receive treatment with nausea. Bernstein (1982) came up with a novel- tasting, maple-flavored ice cream before chemo. Patients less likely to associate nausea with healthy food or place.

Biological Predispositions What about Operant Conditioning? Condition hamsters to dig or rear-up using food as a reinforcer natural food-searching behavior not as successful face washing or other non-food searching behaviors Pigeons flap wings to avoid shock or peck to get food 5.6 What are some examples of classical conditioning in everyday life?

Biological Predispositions Bottom line Biology predispose organisms to learn associations that are naturally adaptive. 5.6 What are some examples of classical conditioning in everyday life?

Classical Conditioning in Everyday Life Why can diet soda make people hungry? The sweet taste of soda becomes a CS. elicits insulin increase (UR) leads to feelings of hunger The pancreas pumps out insulin (lowers blood sugar) in response to any sweet taste such as diet soda. 5.6 What are some examples of classical conditioning in everyday life?
