Pavlov's experiment

Classical Conditioning explained by Pavlov.

1. Pavlov’s Experiment Classical Conditioning Pisharody Manoj Balakrishnan (33) Prateek Gupta (36) Priyanka Pillai (38) Samuel Deepak Srinivasan (44)

2. What is conditioning?

3. Conditioning is… Learning which has been acquired through experience. “It is not accidental that all phenomena of human life are dominated by the search for daily bread, the oldest link connecting all living things, man included, surrounding nature.”

4. What is Classical Conditioning? Classical Conditioning can be defined as a type of learning in which a stimulus acquires the capacity to evoke a reflexive response that was originally evoked by a different stimulus. This occurs when the two stimuli have been associated with each other.

5. KEY CONCEPTS OF CLASSICAL CONDITIONING Unconditioned Stimulus ( UCS) : A stimulus that elicits a response without conditioning. Unconditioned Response ( UCR) : Automatic response elicited by the unconditioned stimulus. Conditioned Stimulus ( CS) : A neutral stimulus that when paired with an unconditioned stimulus (UCS) elicits a similar response. Conditioned Response ( CR) : A response that is learned by pairing the originally neutral conditioned stimulus (CS) with the unconditioned stimulus (UCS ).

7. Ivan Pavlov ivan pavlov Born on September 14, 1849 In 1875 received the degree of Candidate of Natural Sciences. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1904 for his work on digestive secretions. Died Feb. 27, 1936

10. Conditioning Exercise: Close your eyes. Think about your favorite food. Is your mouth watering? If so, it’s because you are conditioned.

11. Types of conditioning Forward Simultaneous Second order and higher order Backward Temporal Zero contingency Extinction Blocking

12. Key processes involved Acquisition External Inhibition Recovery from extinction Stimulus generalization Stimulus discrimination Latent inhibition Conditional suppression Conditioned inhibition

13. Theories Data sources Stimulus substitution R-W model : Comparator & computational ∆V= αβ(λ − Σ V)

14. APPLICATIONS Pavlov’s experiment

15. Neural basis of learning and memory

16. Conditioned hunger

17. Behavioural therapies Flooding Aversion therapy Systematic desensitization

18. Conditional drug response

19. CONDITIONAL EMOTIONAL RESPONSE

20. Some more applications…

21. The axe effect

22. Entertainment

23. Emotional Labour

24. At restaurant

25. Conclusion According to Pavlov, conditioned reflexes were temporary or unstable. Pavlov himself said that it is not an ideal education theory. Classical conditioning is not a change in the behaviour but a similar response to a different stimulus. Classical conditioning = Ineffective for classroom purposes.
