Are essentially ways of manipulating stimuli in order to influence behavior.

Respondent behaviors: reflexive, elicited by prior stimuli and are not affected by their consequences. Examples: salivating when you smell dinner, becoming aroused when watching. X-rated movies: influenced by respondent conditioning which is based on unconditioned reflexes. Unconditioned reflex: a stimulus-response relationship in which a stimulus automatically elicits a response apart from any prior learning, are hard-wired or inborn, consists of us and ur, unconditioned stimulus (us) A stimulus that elicits a response without prior learning or conditioning: unconditioned response (ur) Response elicited by the us: neutral stimulus (ns) Does not elicit an unconditioned response however.
