I found several things about this week’s assigned article by Watson & Rayner (1920) fascinating, but one thing that stood out in my mind was the transfer of the fear response to an alternate stimulus. As we learned in our text, we know that a transfer can occur between similar stimulus and this is known as generalization in classical conditioning (Mazur, 2013). Within our text, Mazur (2013) describes an eyeblink experiment where rabbits were given a shock (US) near their eye and this was repeatedly

In the scope of natural science is described in the nature of modeling a phenomenon in reality and try to connect it to the occurrences. These connections are then checked by numerous of experiments. The validity of the scientific theories are tested by repeatability of the experiment through these replications a constant result is given. However there are scientific claims that can not be verified through experimentation. There are some cases where the claims can not be tested for example if a

In a chemistry experiment I once conducted, my results would not line up with the results listed in the textbook. I did the experiment again, making sure I used the correct chemicals and measurements, but the experiment still did not yield the desired outcome. Every scientist goes through this cycle; they must test everything they find multiple times. This is the image John M. Barry paints in his book The Great Influenza. Barry utilizes numerous writing devices to show readers what all scientists
