Classical conditioning can be seen in my life in the following ways:

After doing some research about Classical conditioning, I noticed a specific example that was used. An individual experimented with a pet that they owned and I was extremely curious to see if my dog, Rocky, would react the same way as the animal that was used in the example. As I began my experiment, I decided to put a little twist into it and use a whistle instead of a bell. I started with showing Rocky his favorite snack (Scooby snacks of course) and noticed salivation. I then took it away and returned with the same snack and a whistle. Now he noticed that the whistle had something to do with the snack. After about 4-6 times of whistling and showing him the snack, his mouth continued to salivate. Soon after, I took away the snack and just blew the whistle and amazingly enough his mouth began salivating again. My thoughts before the experiment were that he wasn’t going to react the way the animal in the example did, but he did! I was surprised to see that but it was really awesome how that worked the way it was supposed to.
