Psychologists like to experiment on other organisms in their immediate environment, so jenny decided to perform a few experiments on her kitty, precious. jenny had a little clicker that makes a loud 'click' sound. she walked around the house, randomly clicking it for a while precious rested in the living room. then jenny sat down with precious, and used the flash on her camera to flash a bright light at the same time she clicked. precious blinked because of the flash, and looked mildly annoyed. jenny repeated this process with her 4 times, then clicked the clicker, without using the flash. she still blinked! (she also looked very unhappy).unconditioned stimulus?
unconditioned response?
neutral stimulus/conditioned stimulus?

Unconditioned Stimulus? The Flash on Jenny’s camera

Unconditioned Response? Jenny’s cat, Precious, blinking because of the flash.

Neutral Stimulus/Conditioned Stimulus? The sound of a“click” with the little clicker

Explanations:

This a great example that makes reference to Ivan Pavlov’s CLASSICAL CONDITIONING; he is the precursor of this theory, his first experiments were with dogs, and thanks to them he discovered the process of the classical conditioning.

Let's analyze Pavlov's experiment:

He noticed that the dogs salivated every time they saw food, but also observed the same behavior when the dogs saw the person who gave them food.

In this experiment we can identify three elements:

When this two elements are combined we get a conditioned stimulus; that is the association of the neutral stimulus and the unconditioned stimulus in order to get a response, which is the third element:

Considering the experiment that Jenny conducted on her cat, we can identify the same three important elements.

She used the “click” (neutral stimulus) and when she didn’t get a response from her cat, she added the flash on her camera (unconditioned stimulus) at the same time as her clicking, obtaining a conditioned stimulus, only to get a response or unconditioned response from her kitty which was blinking and look annoyed.
