Psych 1x03 - chapter 3 - classical conditioning. Introduction: drug tolerance is the decreased effectiveness of a drug such as morphine over the course of repeated administration, research suggests that learning plays an important role in the development and maintenance of drug tolerance. Orienting our attention: in response to perceptible and silent stimuli, orienting responses allow us to selectively attend to potentially important stimuli in our environment and avoid being overwhelmed by unimportant stimuli and environmental changes. Habituation: through repetitive experience with certain stimuli and a lack of negative consequences, responses are decreased but not eliminated, in order to selectively attend to stimuli of importance. Section 2: classical conditioning: russian physiologist ivan pavlov- work led to the discovery of a form of learning called classical conditioning. Section 3: major phenomena of classical conditioning i. Section 4: major phenomena of classical conditioning ii.
