Alexis uses cocaine, which activates her sympathetic nervous system. Expecting her dealer, her hands shake and her heart pounds
when she hears a knock on the door. Which alternation below CORRECTLY identifies the neutral stimulus, the CS, and the UCS?A. Neutral stimulus ---- knock on the door; CS---cocaine; UCS----cocaineB. Neutral stimulus ---- knock on the door; CS---knock on the door; UCS ---- pounding heartC. Neutral stimulus ---- knock on the door; CS--- Knock on the door; UCS cocaineD. Neutral stimulus ---- cocaine; CS--- Knock on the door; UCS cocaine
The correct answer is C. Neutral stimulus: knock on the door; CS: knock on the door; UCS: cocaine.
Explanation:
According to Pavlov, an individual can <em>acquire</em> a certain behavior by relating it to various stimulus.
At first, the knock on the door is considered a neutral stimulus, since it <em>does not trigger any certain response. </em>
The cocaine is an unconditioned stimulus since at first it only generates Alexis's shakiness and heart pound.
Once the <em>neutral stimulus </em><em>mixes </em><em>with the unconditioned stimulus,</em> the neutral stimulus (knocking on the door) becomes a conditioned stimulus since it will make Alexis nervous as she is expecting the dealer.
