PawlowVsBehaviorism: Pawlow was interested in the physiological mechanisms underlying mental phenomena. I 114 Def absolute/unconditioned reflex/Pawlow: the absolute or unconditioned reflex is the formation of the salivation when hearing the bell or the process that causes the formation. Cf. >Conditioning. I 115 Def conditional reflex/conditioned reflex/Pawlow: this reflex consists in the fact that the dog took the bell as the signal for food and expected to be fed. It also turned his head in the direction from which the food normally came. Def conditioning/Frith: "classical conditioning": means only the association between the bell and the salivation - not the expectation and the head turn, more complex processes are here at work. I 116 Association/Pawlow/Frith: no association occurred when the bell sounded only five to 10 seconds after the feeding of the dog food. >Association. Stimulus: a stimulus is only interesting if it predicts an event. Later, it is uninteresting. >Stimuli. Learning/Pawlow/Frith: the learning that Pawlow discovered, is precisely the form of learning we need to survive. It is not sufficient to learn which things are good or bad, we also need to learn how to get them. >Learning.}, note = { Frith I Chris Frith Making up the Mind: How the Brain Creates Our Mental World, Hoboken/NJ 2007 German Edition: Wie unser Gehirn die Welt erschafft Heidelberg 2013 }, file = {http://philosophy-science-humanities-controversies.com/listview-details.php?id=769572} url = {http://philosophy-science-humanities-controversies.com/listview-details.php?id=769572} }
