Presentation on theme: "Conditioning = Learning"— Presentation transcript:

1 Conditioning = Learning
What is learning? A relatively permanent change in behavior caused by experience and practice

2 Why? Does your dog drool when you open the can of food before the food is given to him/her? Does your friend flinch when you tickle him/her? Does your little sister tremble at the sound of the dentist drill? Does a student blush before he/she is called on to give a speech?

3 What is classical conditioning?
Learning that happens when 2 unrelated stimuli are paired together Example: the word “can” and a spray of water

4 Ivan Pavlov Introduced “Behaviorism” through famous dog experiment.
Nobel prize winner

5 Unconditioned = Natural Conditioned = Learned
Unconditioned stimulus (UCS)= stimulus that triggers a response naturally (meat) Unconditioned Response (UCR)= automatic response to unconditioned stimulus (drool) Conditioned Stimulus (CS)=previously neutral stimulus, through learning, is able to cause a conditioned response. (tone) Conditioned Response (CR) This is the response to the conditioned stimulus (drool)

6 The Process…. Acquisition Generalization Discrimination Extinction

7 What is behaviorism, and how did Watson use the principles of classical conditioning to create learned fear in Little Albert? Unconditioned Stimulus= Unconditioned Response= Conditional stimulus= Conditioned response=

8 What happened to “Little Albert”?
Born to Arvilla Merritte (age 22) He lived at the Harriet Lane Home (Pediatric facility on Johns Hopkins campus) Mother was a “wet nurse” Died at age 6 of hydrocephalus His real name was Douglas Merritte Was he psychologically “harmed” by this experiment?

9 Is it possible to reverse Watson’s techniques and eliminate a phobia (irrational fear)
Mary Cover Jones Student of Watson’s Developed techniques of counter-conditioning or desensitization

10 There is a flaw in the principles of classical conditioning….
Hold everything… There is a flaw in the principles of classical conditioning….

11 Taste Aversion-John Garcia
We are biologically predisposed to develop an aversion to the taste of food we ate before we became sick..

12 Can we “learn” to be helpless?
