PSYCH 1F03 Lecture Notes - Lecture 4: Classical Conditioning, Sweetened Beverage, Homeostasis
Document Summary
Dogs would begin to salivate before food were in their mouths. Metrenome would inform the dog of incoming food. Contingencies: when one stimulus reliably predicts the presentation of other. Formed when the cs reliably predicts the us. The learning of a contingency between a particular signal and a later event that are paired in time and or space. Salivating is an example of classical conditioning. Learning contingencies can be critical for avoiding predators. The response that occurs after the unconditioned stimulus. Paired with the unconditioned stimulus to produce a learned contingency. The organizsm has learned a contingent relationship between two stimuli. The response that occurs once the contingency between the cs and us has been learned been learned. The process by which a contingency between a cs and us is learned. Some contingencies can be acquired in a single trial. Eat small quantities of food at a time.
