Edward was accidentally hurt in his physical education class last week when a large boy ran into him and knocked the breath out of him. Edward is now afraid to go to physical education. Explain this situation in terms of classical conditioning, identifying the UCS, UCR, CS, and CR
What will be an ideal response?
Edward associated physical education class with a temporary lack of oxygen—something that frightened him. Lack of oxygen was the UCS; being afraid as a result was the UCR. Physical education class and the boy who ran into him were associated with the lack of oxygen; hence they were CSs. Fearing physical education class and fearing the boy became CRs. In answering this question, it is sufficient to identify one CS and one CR.
