Psychological aspects Classical conditioning requires that the learning have predictive value Conditioned stimuli (no overt response)and unconditioned stimuli(gives an overt response) not simply timing of events relative to each other blocking phenomena( tone and light experiment) tone does not add anything so not learned we can detect a positive correlation between two stimuli(efficiency of pairing) Extinction can occur over time(unpairedPsychological aspects ⚫ Classical conditioning requires that the learning have predictive value ⚫ Conditioned stimuli (no overt response) and unconditioned stimuli (gives an overt response) – not simply timing of events relative to each other – blocking phenomena (tone and light experiment) ⚫ tone does not add anything so not learned – we can detect a positive correlation between two stimuli (efficiency of pairing) – Extinction can occur over time (unpaired)
