Document Summary
Chapter 7: learning: unconditioned response: a reflexive reaction that is reliably. Learning involves the acquisition of new knowledge, skills, or responses from experiences that result in a relatively permanent change in the state of the learner. Learning is based on experience produced by an unconditioned stimulus. : the dogs" salivation: conditioned stimulus: a stimulus that is initially neutral and produces no reliable response in an organism. : sound of a buzzer, ticking of a metronome, humming of a tuning fork or the flash of the light. These were paired with the presentation of food and soon, the dogs started to salivate to any of those. Learning produces changes in the organism stimuli. The changes produced are relatively permanent: conditioned response: a reaction that resembles an. Occurs when a neutral stimulus produces a response after being paired with a stimulus that naturally produces a response. Pavlov and his studies involving the digestive process of dogs.
