Document Summary
Cs in order to evoke a conditional response. Demonstration of pavlovian conditioning (rayer study: little albert, however, when he reached for the rat, a pipe was banged with a hammer resulting in loud. Initially no fear of white lab rat unpleasant noise (us: us fear response (ur, rat (cs) associated with us resulting in fear response (cr, fear of rat also generalized to other white furry things. Excitatory and inhibitory conditioning: excitatory conditioning, cs signals the occurrence of a us or reinforcer, not necessarily excited" behavior, e. g. If responding is reduced by cs2 it is an inhibitor: the sum of responding to cs2 + cs1 is less than cs1 alone, retardation, cs2 trained as an excitor. If it has inhibitory (negative) strength acquisition of the cr will be retarded in comparison to animals for which cs2 is a novel / neutral stimulus.
