      while most psychology is about what is not observable, this states that behaviorism deals with what is. ^.^

  • unconditioned stimulus and an unconditioned response -- a reflex

  • neutral stimulus with the reflex by presenting it with the unconditioned stimulus
  • conditioned response

  • extinction
  • first signal system is where the conditioned stimulus (a bell) acts as a “signal” that an important event is to occur

  • methodological behaviorism and radical behaviorism
  • early 19th century
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Subjective/conscious experience was regarded as mental, not physical
  • not publicly observable, and could not be counted, measured, or recorded, at least not in the same way as the subject matter of chemistry or physics
  • tended to pursue their concerns about mental/conscious/subjective experience according to some form of rational inquiry found in philosophy, rather than according to some understanding of the scientific method.
  • regarded those movements as a subject matter of a different science--physiology, rather than psychology
  • scholars in the early 19th century were concerned with the mechanics of the physical movements of the body

  • classical behaviorism formally and explicitly defined psychology as the science of behavior
  • metaphysical behaviorism subscribes to the view that the only things that are real are things that are publicly observable
    • Minjie Kim

      this basically means that only things you can see exist, so it really puts a damper on all that happiness and love and sorrow and all that junk
  • metaphysical behaviorism
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • if the existence of mental phenomena is denied because they are unobservable, is the existence of all unobservables, including unobservable experiences, denied?
  • The question that arose from metaphysical behaviorism was again whether we really want to deny the existence or reality of all phenomena that aren't publicly observable
  • philosophical behaviorism emphasizes that mental concepts in psychological explanations mean nothing more than dispositions to engage in publicly observable behavior
  • logical behaviorism emphasizes that mental concepts in psychological explanations must be verified in terms of publicly observable behavior

  • Only the gifted, only the dedicated, only the best will win.
  • Modern sport is plagued by suspicions that many top athletes resort to drug-taking – doping – to enhance their performance. They use anabolic steroids, human growth hormone, erythropoietin (EPO), beta-blockers, stimulants or diuretics.
