Question 14 Pavlov used the term unconditioned to refer to? a. Responses produced by the glands b. Stimuli and to the automatic, involuntary responses c. Blushing, shivering , being startled, or salivating d. "Reflex" responses

The correct answer is b. Stimuli and to the automatic, involuntary responses.<br /><br />In Pavlov's classical conditioning experiments, he used the term "unconditioned" to refer to stimuli and the automatic, involuntary responses they elicit. Unconditioned stimuli are those that naturally and automatically trigger a response without any prior learning or conditioning. For example, food is an unconditioned stimulus that naturally and automatically triggers salivation in a dog. The response to the unconditioned stimulus is called the unconditioned response.
