Classical Conditioning
Psychology ⇒ Learning and Memory
Classical Conditioning starts at 10 and continues till grade 12.
QuestionsToday has an evolving set of questions to continuously challenge students so that their knowledge grows in Classical Conditioning.
How you perform is determined by your score and the time you take.
When you play a quiz, your answers are evaluated in concept instead of actual words and definitions used.
See sample questions for grade 12
A person who gets nauseous after eating a certain food and later feels sick at the sight of that food is experiencing what type of learning?
Define the term 'unconditioned response' in classical conditioning.
Describe a real-life example of classical conditioning not related to Pavlov's dogs.
Describe how classical conditioning can be used in advertising.
A bell rings and a dog receives food. After several pairings, the dog salivates to the bell alone. In this scenario, what is the bell after conditioning? (1) Unconditioned stimulus (2) Conditioned stimulus (3) Unconditioned response (4) Neutral stimulus
A child is bitten by a dog and later becomes afraid of all dogs. This is an example of: (1) Discrimination (2) Generalization (3) Extinction (4) Spontaneous recovery
A person develops a fear of elevators after being stuck in one. The elevator is now a ________ stimulus for fear.

Generalization in classical conditioning refers to: (1) Responding only to the original stimulus (2) Responding to stimuli similar to the conditioned stimulus (3) Forgetting the learned response (4) Pairing two neutral stimuli
Which of the following best describes 'acquisition' in classical conditioning? (1) The process of learning the association between stimuli (2) The disappearance of a learned response (3) The return of a response after extinction (4) The tendency to respond to similar stimuli
