behavioral psychologists have come up with new views

0:03

that only a animal behavior but of human nature as well

0:08

and he’s using all concern the process that we take for granted burdette

0:13

because we are all truly born to learn

0:18

ironically one of the most important figures in the study of learning ivan

0:21

pavlov

0:23

wasn’t concern with the subject at all at least not at first

0:27

pavlov unloaded russian scientists won the nobel prize for physiology in

0:31

medicine in nineteen oh four

0:34

as this original footage shows path lab was initially interested in digestion

0:40

andy action of the strawberry glands

0:43

by diverting the slide of god’s into test tubes

0:46

he could precisely measured if and how much this elevated

0:49

during digestion

0:53

when food was presented the dog celebrated quickly

0:56

and inherited salivary reflex

1:01

but over repeated testings a strange thing happened

1:04

the dog celebrated before contact with the food

1:09

just the sight of the food was enough to stimulate did ruling

1:14

just seeing the food dish or even hearing the footsteps of pavlov or his

1:18

assistants was enough to trigger this built-in reflex

1:24

what was going on to elicit this response pablo decided to find out by

1:29

systematically during the stimuli and measuring the dogs reaction

1:36

metronome lights and bells for ald uses stimuli and the all work as stand-ins

1:41

for the food

1:43

what mattered was not the kind of stimulus that was used for the fact that

1:47

reliably signaled the food was on the way

1:51

way pavlov had discovered a fundamental type of learning or classical

1:56

conditioning

1:58

an original fionnuala soliciting automatic unlearn response both stimulus

2:03

and response happen naturally their unconditionally

2:08

in a second neutral stimulus that nevertheless is the unconditionally

2:13

spots by itself

2:14

is introduced just before the presentation of the original statement

2:18

from

2:25

sp

2:28

if the neutral or signaling stimulus this presented alone in response to

2:33

paris as if the original stimulus was still there

2:36

we say that conditioning has taken place

2:40

arbitrary neutral stimulus becomes a condition stimulus

2:45

the reverse is also true

2:48

pavlov another study the extinction overtime of such conditioned responses

2:55

the subject learns that the conditions stimulus no longer signals a desire to

2:59

ban cc position processes you first

3:03

as the burned connections gradually weaker

3:11

pavlov’s work the work of those who followed him

3:14

led to a remarkable conclusion

3:16

and that is any stimulus an organism can proceed

3:20

is capable of eliciting any reaction the organisms capable of making

3:25

this means that virtue in sound site or smell can influence the way of muscles

3:30

ten so relaxed our moods fluctuate

3:33

or even the way our actions or form

3:36

for instance if i say

3:38

peanuts

3:39

and then do this

3:41

you’re going to be startling upset

3:43

after five and six pairings out

3:45

relax

3:47

just saying the word relax is going to generate negative response rather than

3:52

its usual learned reaction
