Think back to one of the many episodes of your life where you have learned through classical conditioning.Recount the learning experience, being sure to point out the different stimulus ® response components. Did you experience stimulus generalization? Has extinction occurred??
What will be an ideal response?
ANSWER:
Below is a sample response:
When I was in high school, I had a date with a pretty girl that I had liked for a long time. We went out to eat pizza at Pizza Jim's. Because we were having such a fun time, I didn't notice how hot the pizza was until I bit into it. I jerked the pizza away from my face, but not all the pizza went with my hand. I found myself holding crust with cheese, sauce and toppings dripping down my face and shirt. The heat of the cheese, sauce, and toppings was intense, and my face hurt for a long time afterward. After this experience, the mention of Pizza Jim's would make me feel bad and recoil. The unconditioned stimulus in this example is the hot food, and the unconditioned response is the pain. The conditioned stimulus is the restaurant, Pizza Jim's, and the pain reaction is the conditioned response. Luckily, I did not experience stimulus generalization and was able to continue eating pizza at Walter's Pizza Shack and Chez Eileen. But Pizza Jim's is the best, and I would be around people who ordered it. I would smell it, and people would offer me a taste, and little by little I overcame my fear of Pizza Jim's.?
