Creative Classical Conditioning Experiment

In your group, create an experiment that follows classical conditioning. Make sure there is a US, UR, CS, CR. Please explain all of these aspects for your classmates to read. Once everyone has posted their experiment, please respond to one other group. In your response you should evaluate the accuracy of their US, UR, CS, CR. Read all of the experiments. We will be voting on the most accurate and creative experiment for extra credit.

    When a baby is turned upside down it is an automatic fear because blood rushes to the head and it is discomfort that may cause a headache. If you take the child while it is upside down and pinch it, which is another discomfort that a child wouldn’t like, it will dislike them both. Repeating the pinching while upside down will cause a child to relate the two things. Now when the child is pinched it will have the fear of going upside down.

    US: Going upside down

    UR: Blood rushes to the head and causes discomfort which then creates fear

    CS: Being pinched

    CR: Fear of going upside down

  3. Every time you give a little girl soda, you snap your fingers. Naturally when the little girl receives soda she gets really hyper because of caffine. Eventually, after a certain number of times of you giving her soda and snapping your fingers; the little girl will get hyper at the sound of you snapping your fingers.
    US: Soda
    UR: Getting Hyper
    CS: Snapping Finger Sound
    CR: Getting Hyper

  6. Opening Christmas Presents could be an example of a Creative Classical Conditioning. Usually on Christmas Eve you go to sleep and wake up in the morning expecting to have presents under the Christmas tree. All the excitement to when you wake up is something natural and it's expected for you to see the presents.

    *The US could be the action of opening the presents.

    *The UR & The CR could be the excitement you feel when you wake up.

    *The CS could be the Christmas carols that have been playing all morning.

    Either way, this is natural. Who doesn’t get excited when it’s Christmas morning? (:

  7. GETTING A SHOT

    When you know a doctor is about to give you a shot in your arm an unconditional stimulus occurs. This would be the shot because naturally when receiving a shot it hurts.
    The unconditional response would be the automatic response to pain from the shot. This is a natural reflex.
    The conditioned stimulus would be the fear of pointy objects. The person's fear of pointy objects is a repeated association with needles.
    The conditioned response would be the pain or fear of the needle. A person's fear in response to the shot was a conditioned response.It was learned from a stimulus that was previously neutral or meaningless.
