Unit 4 discussion
According to Wade and Tavris, classical conditioning can
have both positive and negative associations. Think of a negative connection
that you have formulated in the past due to classical conditioning. For
example, as a teenager, you might have enjoyed studying while reclining on your
bed; however, one’s bed is usually linked to sleepiness. Quite possibly, you
ended up feeling tired and sleepy, and you might have dozed off instead of
cramming for that exam. Describe a personal example in which classical
conditioning has produced a negative association in your life. What could you
have done differently to avoid the negative behavior?
