Chapter 9.1:Classical Conditioning Mr. McCormick Psychology
Essential Question How is behaviorinfluenced by one’s environment, and how do people process, store, and retrieveinformation?
Do-Now:(Create List in Journal) • Consider the following stimuli: • With what do you typically associate each stimuli? • The sight oflightning= • The sound of a loud buzzing drill = • The taste of hot chocolate = • The smell ofpopcornand cotton candy = • The feel of a brisk wind on your skin =
Why do we associate? • Why do we typically associate such events with one another? • They typically occur with/as a result of one another • Natural Stimuluselicits Natural Response • (e.g. lightning = “rain”)
Classical Conditioning • Classical Conditioning: • Ivan Pavlov (Behavioral Psychologist) • Example of learning • A learning procedure in which associations are made between a natural stimulusand a neutral stimulus • E.g. Lightning (natural stimulus) elicits “rain” • E.g. Lightning (natural stimulus) and umbrellas (neutral stimulus) elicit “rain”
Classical Conditioning(See Figure 9.1 “Classical Conditioning Experiment” pg. 243) • Neutral Stimulus:Bell • Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS):Food • Unconditioned Response (UCR):Salivation • Conditioned Stimulus (CS):Bell • Conditioned Response (CR):Salivation
Why Study Classical Conditioning? • Why might psychologists be interested in studying “Classical Conditioning” in humans and animals?
Classical Conditioning • Purposes of Classical Conditioning: • Key process of learning • Helps humans and animals adapt to the environment • Helps humans and animals avoid danger • Provide an example of how Classical Conditioning acts in such ways
Review • What is Classical Conditioning? • How does it suggest that we learn? • Differentiate between the following: • Neutral Stimulus • Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS) • Unconditioned Response (UCR) • Conditioned Stimulus (CS) • Conditioned Response (CR)
