The Conditioning Conclusion!!!!!

In the End....
Ivan Pavlov made a huge contribution to the physiology society! He made it possible to study psychic activity because he discovered conditioned reflexes. Before Pavlov discovered conditioned reflexes experiments were done subjective, he made it possible to discover by experimental means! 
A lot of research would not have been possible without the help of Ivan Pavlov! We all owe him a big THANK YOU!
   If you want more information on Ivan Pavlov, this was an excellent site.

Pavlov's Point!!!

Pavlov's Classical Conditioning seems like it would be tricky to condition yourself to learn, but I found a diagram that breaks it down pretty well!


If you are still having some trouble understanding his research, try watching this video. I provided the link below, I found it very helpful when it came to my research.

Condition, Condition, Condition!!



Researching Ivan Pavlov has made me realize what a great impact he made in the Physiology world! I always read about him in other classes, actually quite a few classes!! I found his research with the dogs very interesting, and I find it awesome that he was studying digestion. Some how he started coming up with the idea of conditioning! Now Ivan Pavlov's "Classical Conditioning" is taught in many different types of classes. Even though I have learned about it several times, it still strikes me as amazing!
