Right at the moment she reached the entrance, she witnessed a car crash and a few people were bleeding. She b Identify the UCS, UCR, CS, and CR.

UCS = car crash

UCR = tears

CS = cat & small animals etc. guinea pig

CR = fear & avoidance


Remove response:

Extinction -- keep playing with cat until fear is removed [exposure therapy might work]

Counter-conditioning -- pair a stimuli that evokes a happy response etc. sweets

UCS: car crash

UCR: burst into tears/ fear

CS: seeing a cat/ other similar animals

CR: fear


Other relevant concepts:

  • Generalisation (to other animals too)

  • Classical conditioning


how to remove the unwanted responses:

  • keep showing her the cat without additional stimuli (extinction)

  • Keep showing her a cat from far away when she eats something she likes (counterconditioning)

    • potential boomerang effect where she hates the food she likes T.T
