Researchers set up a study to determine whether large doses of a nutritional supplement would shorten the length of time it take

s to recover from a cold. Three thousand volunteers were split into two groups. For two weeks, members of group A took 3,000 mg of the supplement daily. Group B received 3,000 mg of a placebo (sugar pill). At the end of the two-week period, the researchers inserted live cold viruses directly into the noses of all the volunteers. The volunteers in both group A and group B continued to take their daily pills. All the volunteers got colds, and there was no significant difference in the length of time the colds lasted.
To have confidence that the results of the experiment were valid, you'd also want to know
a. whether the volunteers all worked for the same company.
b. whether any volunteers had colds at the start of the experiment.
c. whether the volunteers exercised daily.

tester [92]

Answer:

  1. Unconditioned stimuli, US: getting hurt by hot water.
  2. Conditioned stimulus, CS: hearing a toilet flush.
  3. Unconditioned response, UR: feeling pain after hurting.
  4. Conditioned response, CR: being afraid when hearing a toilet flush.

Explanation:

  • Unconditioned stimuli: Biologically significant stimuli that provoke an unlearned or reflex reaction. For example, getting hurt by hot water.
  • Conditioned stimuli: neutral, innocuous or biologically not significant stimuli. For example, hearing a toilet flush.
  • Unconditioned Responses: Unlearned response that is triggered by reflex because of an unconditioned stimulus. For example, feeling a lot of pain after hurting by hot water.
  • Conditioned Responses: These are provoked by conditioned stimuli. This refers to a learned response that reflects the association between conditioned and unconditioned stimuli. For example, being afraid when hearing a toilet flush.

Initially, an unconditioned stimulus does not provoke any response, but after enough exposition to conditioned and unconditioned stimuli together, the simple presence of unconditioned stimuli induces conditioned responses. In this aspect, the subject has learned to predict or to anticipate the unconditioned stimulus.
