    First, Pavlov used soundproof lab because it allowed to isolate experimenters from all extraneous stimuli during the experimental procedures. Second, Pavlov chose food as unconditioned stimulus because food will elicit the unconditioned response, which was the salivation of the dog. In order to find a neutral stimulus that was completely unrelated to food, Pavlov decided to use the metronome as the neutral stimulus . The ticking of the metronome was exposed to the dog, immediately followed by the food. After numerous trials under this condition, the dog has began to salivate after hearing the ticking of the bell. In another word, the metronome has changed from neutral stimulus to conditioned stimulus , which has created the conditioned response of dog's salivation. Pavlov and his assistants also elaborated on this preliminary finding by using different unconditioned and neutral stimuli. For example, the odor of vanilla was presented after a mild acid solution (similar to lemon juice) was placed in the dog's mouth . The mild acid solution caused the dog to salivate . However, after several trials, the dog began to salivate solely to the odder of vanilla . Another importance finding was that the neutral stimulus did not affect the subjects conditioning if it was presented after the unconditioned stimulus. Pavlov first gave the mild acid solution to the dog; and after awhile, presented the odor of vanilla . But there was no significant change of the dog's behavior. The odor of vanilla did not changed to a conditioned stimulus. he theory of Classical Conditioning (aka Pavlovian conditioning) has now been accepted universally and unchanged since its first finding through Pavlov's work. It is now used to explain various different human behaviors, such as causation of phobias, why people dislike certain food, source of emotions, etc. Pavlov's finding has showed that classical conditioning focuses on reflexive behaviors,…

    The Stanford prison experiment was a study of psychological effects and what the effects could do to a prisoner and prison guard. The experiment was taken placed at Stanford University from August fourteenth to the twentieth in 1971, which was led by a professor named Philip Zimbardo. US Navy and Marine Corps was very interested in the experiment and wanted to know the cause and effects it could have on a military guard and prisoner. So the US Office of Naval Research funded money toward the experiment. Out of seventy-five male students only twenty-four were selected for the experiment. The twenty-four males were randomly assigned roles to either become a prisoner or prison guard. The experiment was set to happen in the basement of the Stanford psychology building. Professor Zimbardo, had high expectations for the experiment and the participants adapted to their roles well beyond what Zimbardo thought. The guards became powerful and knew that they had power over the prisoners. They took the role as a guard so far as to torture the prisoners. Many of the prisoners accepted the abuse and for others who didn’t accepted the abuse, they were harassed. The experiment became out of control but that did not affect Zimbardo (who was the superintendent in the experiment), and actually let the abuse and harassment to continue. The experiment was supposed to last for two week but after two of the prisoners quit early the entire experiment was stopped. After only day six the two prisoners could not handle another minute longer. During the experiment certain parts were filmed and are still available to look at even today.…
