Topic 4.2
In terms of classical conditioning, why does a dog salivate when hearing the sound of a bell ring?
The dog is learning to associate ringing bells with negative reinforcements like punishments.
The bell has been paired with food, causing an association between the two stimuli.
The dog's innate instinct is responding to high-frequency sounds such as bells by salivating.
The sound of the bell naturally causes salivation in dogs.
