Reflection Suppose a one-year old child is playing with a toy near an electrical out-let.He sticks part of the toy into the outlet. He gets shocked, becomes frightened, and begins to cry. For several days after that experience, he shows fear when his mother gives him the toy and he refuses to play with it. What are the UCS? UCR? CS ? CR? Show in diagram there association into three stages of processes? a) UCS b) UCR c) CS d) CR Could you please explain of something you learned through classical conditioning?

Answer 1

Certainly, let's break down the scenario using classical conditioning terms:1. **Unconditioned Stimulus (UCS):** - a) UCS: The electrical shock when the child sticks the toy into the outlet.2. **Unconditioned Response (UCR):** - b) UCR: The child's natural response, which is getting shocked, becoming frightened, and crying.3. **Conditioned Stimulus (CS):** - c) CS: The toy itself, which becomes associated with the shock.4. **Conditioned Response (CR):** - d) CR: The child's fear and refusal to play with the toy after associating it with the shock.Now, let's represent the association in a classical conditioning diagram:``` Before Conditioning During Conditioning After Conditioning ------------------------- ----------------------------- -------------------------UCS | No Shock | Shock paired with the toy | No Shock | | (Electrical Outlet) |UCR | No Fear or Crying | Fear, Crying | No Fear or Crying | | |CS | Toy | Toy paired with the shock | Toy | | (Conditioned Stimulus) |CR | No Fear or Refusal | Fear, Refusal | Fear, Refusal | | (Conditioned Response) |```In summary, the child initially has no fear of the toy (UCS-UCR). Through classical conditioning, the toy becomes a conditioned stimulus (CS) associated with the shock, leading to a conditioned response (CR) of fear and refusal to play with the toy.
