In classical conditioning, the unconditoned stimulus (US) is one which reflexively causes a response. One example is putting something into your mouth causes salivation. In this case the unconditioned response (UR) is the response to a US presented alone, the salivation.
A conditioned stimulus (CS) originally has little or no effect. Only when the CS is repeatedly paired with a US (or previously learned CS) will it become a CS. A good example is the sound of a cellophane wrapper being opened. Originally it has little or no effect. However, after being repeatedly paired with eating candy or other foods, it alone will produce the conditioned response. The conditioned response (CR) is one given to the CS when presented alone.
I am trying to list the elements of classical conditioning in a taste aversion. My taste aversion is for bananas. I developed a hatred for them after becoming sick when they were put in something I had to drink when I got sick.
Would by neutral stimulus be bananas?
Unconditional stimulus is sight/smell/taste of bananas?
Conditioned response is feeling sick/vomiting
Conditioned stimulus is bananas
Conditioned response is feeling sick?
