Pavlov’s dog have been used for his conditioning experiments for a very long time. Pavlov took the next move and tried to teach his dogs to salivate to a very distinct bell. Let’s say there are 5 different bells, and Bell # 4 is the only bell that produces food when it is rung. Pavlov conditioned his dogs to distinguish between the 5 different bells and to only salivate when Bell #4 is rung. The fact that Pavlov’s dogs can now distinguish between the bells is known as what phenomenon?
Discrimination

A dog tends to salivate (UR) when it receives food (US). It is conditioned to salivate (CR) to hearing a bell (NS). Now, you take conditioning one step further. You flash a light bulb 5 minutes before ringing the bell and then providing the food. The dog is now conditioned to salivate (CR) when the light bulb goes off. What is this phenomenon called?
Second-order conditioning

Ice-cream makes your mouth water. The first time you heard the song from an ice cream truck, it means nothing to you. However, you realize the truck provides ice cream. Now, every time an ice-cream truck passes by, it makes your mouth water. What is the US, UR, NS, CS, and CR?
i. US=Ice-cream ii. UR= Salivation (mouth waters) iii. NS= Ice cream Truck iv. CS= Ice cream Truck v. CR= Salivation (mouth waters)
