Behaviorism

A Russian physiologist
Born in Ryazan, Russia on September 14, 1849
Died on February 27, 1936
He is known for using dogs for behavioural tests
Introduce Classical Conditioning

Ivan Petrovich Pavlov

Transfer of response
Connection between two stimulus

reflexes or responses
Human and Animals can be trained to perform a
certain task or response by providing some sort of
trigger, which may be a sound, picture, phrase, etc.

Classical Conditioning

Components or Elements involved in Classical Conditioning


Unconditioned Stimulus
Conditioned Stimulus
Neutral Stimulus
Unconditioned Response

Povlovs Basic Principle or Findings

an American psychologist who established


the psychological school of behaviorism
Born in South Carolina, on January 9, 1878
Died on 1958 at the age of 80
Performed the Little Albert Experiment on 1920

John B. Watson

Little Alberts Experiment

Classical Conditioning

This experiment proofs the Behaviorism theory


and shows that people could be conditioned to
fear something and they can even end
generalizing the object.

Little Alberts Experiment

American Psychologist
Born on 1874, in Williamsburg, Massachusetts
Died in 1949

Chief exponent of Connectionism (trial and error)


Conducted Stimulus - Response (S-R) Theory

Edward Thorndike

Learning is the result of associations forming


between stimuli and responses.
> S-R Pairings = Strength
< S-R Pairings = Weak
Trial and Error Learning
Connectionism Theory or S-R Theory

Im hungry..
How can I escape?
I want to eat.

Puzzle Box

1. Drive Hunger (Motivation)


2. Goal get food by getting out of the box
3. Block the cat was confined in the box with a closed door
4. Random Movement - the cat, persistently, tried to get out of the box
5. Chance of Success - as a result of this striving and random movement the cat, by chance,
succeeded in opening the door.
6. Selection (of proper movement): Gradually the cat recognized the correct manipulation of
latch.
7. Fixation: At last, the cat learned the proper way of opening the door by eliminating all the
incorrect responses and fixing the only right responses.

The experiment sum up the following in the process of


learning

learning is nothing but the stamping in of correct responses


and stamping out of incorrect responses through trial and
error.

States that the more readiness the

the stronger the bond between them

States that the more an S-R
