Little Albert
Did the results of Watson and Rayner's experiment support their hypothesis?
1. Yes because the previously neutral objects were paired with upsetting stimulus's producing a fearful response.
How did Albert's response become generalized?
2. He was conditioned to fear a white rabbit so he also feared other furry white objects.
How were the principles of classical conditioning used to reduce Peter's fear of rabbits?
3. To eliminate Peter's fear by pairing the feared object (rat) with pleasant things (like eating ice cream, or recieving special attention).
