Classical order

Classical conditioning is the process by which a response that is normally elicited by one stimulus becomes elicited by another conditioned stimulus. A classic example of this is Pavlov’s dog experiment. Pavlov ran his experiment by seeing whether a dog would salivate under certain conditions. He first presented the dog with food, which of course elicited salivation. He then rang a bell near the dog, which caused no response. He began to ring the bell while giving the dog its food, causing the…

Purpose: To study sliding friction and to determine the coefficients of static and kinetic friction. Theory: Friction is a force that opposes motion. Static friction prevents an objects being set into motion by an external force. Kinetic friction opposes the progress of a sliding object. Static friction is given by Fs< usn where N is the normal force between the object and its support surface and us is the coefficient of static friction. There-fore, the coefficient of static friction is…

Subject/Themes The article presents many themes through out its entirety. First, it is understood that this is a speech that is being made at a funeral in honor of the first Athenian soldiers to fall during the Peloponnesian war. Also, the greatness of Athens is referenced through out the entire passage. By instilling pride and ownership for Athens to the people listening there is a sense of recruitment for the country 's military. Getting the audience to turn from the despair of war at…

In the Aristophanes’ play Lysistrata, is satire that not only links sex and politics in ancient Greece, but also shows the faults of the Athenian democracy and the relationship between men and women. In straight forward terms the play Lysistrata shows the struggle to come to a solution to ultimately end the disastrous Peloponnesian War. More Specifically the need to understand why the women were so essential to end the Peloponnesian War is vital in the play. Thus, the author constructs a vision…

find laws of learning to predict and control behaviour. The theory behind behaviourist is that learning produces a relatively permanent change in behaviour as a result of prior experiences. There are two ways in which your learn behaviour. One is classical conditioning which is learning by association. This is where the unconditional stimulus produces an unconditional response, this is a natural response which has not been taught. For example, a stomach virus (UCS) could create a response of…

In my opinion, I find tittle 's control-balance theory to be a little bit off. In the book, it states, “Tittle argued that a person is least likely to offend when he or she has a balance of controlling and being controlled” (Tittle, 1995 ). The thing that I don 't understand is: How can the balance of controlling and being controlled determine whether or not a person will offend or not? I believe that a person could offend on other circumstances, such as how they grow up. By this, I mean if the…

Research: According to Newton 's Second law when force is increased acceleration increases assuming that mass stays constant. a=F/m Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to prove when force increases acceleration also increases. The independent variable is amount of force applied to the Lenny Board and the dependant variable is the acceleration of the Lenny Board. 3 controlled variables are mass, surface of testing, and the Lenny Board (the weight, the amount of grease on the bearings, ECT) itself…

This past month, I read the novel A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess. After choosing this piece, I did a little research on the author and his work. To my surprise, A Clockwork Orange is a classic novel that has been widely acclaimed. In 1971, the novel was even translated into the film industry by Warner Brothers Company. The movie skyrocketed book sales throughout the world and thus the film adaptation cemented the book even further to the top of the acclaimed reading list. Anthony Burgess…

Milaya Ruffin Mr. Simmons Biology October 14, 2016 Research Many people have gone on roller coasters, but have they really thought about how they work? All of the tosses and turns. How does it stay on the track? How does it slow down? How does it speed up? Slow and clanking, the string of cars is pulled up to the highest point of a roller coaster. One by one, the cars start going downhill on the other side, until gravity kicks into action and the full weight of the train is going down into…

Roderick T Long’s article entitled, “Corporations versus the Market; or, Whip Conflation Now” explores the link between the free market and the rise of big business and corporations. Specifically, Long questions the motives of libertarian free market advocates of simultaneously legitimizing plutocratic corporations. He begins by pointing out that a completely free market and big business are at odds, utilizing many examples of government intervention propping up corporations and their businesses…
