Guided Notes
Key concepts students will learn:
- •
Ivan Pavlov's experiments are among the most famous in the history of psychology and contributed to the foundation of the behaviorist school of thought.
- •
In classical conditioning, the unconditioned stimulus is paired with the neutral stimulus during conditioning until the neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus eliciting a conditioned response.
- •
Operant conditioning involves associating our own behavior with consequences, where behaviors increase when followed by reinforcement or reward, but decrease when followed by punishment.
