NROC61H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Classical Conditioning, Stim, Eyeblink Conditioning
Document Summary
Its uc b/c its a reflexive innate response there was a transfer of rewarding properties of food to the bell. Pavlovian conditioning is important and present in our learning. Associative learning is about forming associations b/w diff stim for diff events. Most examples of pavlovian learning are excitatory conditioning. Pavlov"s dog is fed a meat powder; as dog was getting ready to be fed, it would emit a salivating response. Cr: response elicited by presentation of a cs (that has been repeatedly paired w/ the food us) there"s association formed b/w bell and food. **bell also forms association w/ ur to produce cr. Classical eyeblink conditioning airpuff is presented to the eye; so you would blink over time w/ pairing of sound and air puff; blink occurs w/ presentation of just sound. Pavlovian conditioning is very reflexive; you can see it developing in short period of time that sound stim occurred.
