In Pavlov's "salivating dogs" studies, the CR was _____________

A) salivation
B) food
C) sound
D) biting


Answer: A
Rationale: A conditioned response (CR) is the learned response that occurs to the conditioned stimulus (CS). Pavlov's dogs famously learned to salivate to a once neutral sound, making salivation the CR. Salivation was also the unconditioned response (UR) in Pavlov's experiment because the dogs' reflexive response to the food was to salivate.
