Human caring‚ according to Watson‚ is based on human values such as "kindness‚ concern‚ and love of self and others." She differentiates altruism from self-sacrifice and describes it as a fullness of being that allows the nurse to be authentically present with clients. Watson states that a humanistic-altruistic value system begins early in life but continues to be influenced through interactions with parents‚ family‚ friends‚ and others‚ including nurse educators. Furthermore‚ she asserts that such

Ivan Petrovich Pavlov (1849-1936) is one of the most famous men in the field of psychology known. Pavlov was a behaviorist‚ which means that his theories focused on observable behavior‚ because he believed behavior can be measured and thought cannot be measured. He believed that the human mind should be interpreted as a black box that cannot be opened. Only what goes in the box and what comes out can be known. Scientific evidence is crucial in his theory. He has contributed so much to the field

one of the many schools of theory within psychology developed to explain and explore observable behavior.

We use the term classical conditioning to describe one type of associative learning in which there is no contingency between response and reinforcer. This situation resembles most closely the experiment from Pavlov in the 1920s‚ where he trained his dogs to associate a bell ring with a food-reward (Ryle 1995). In such experiments‚ the subject initially shows weak or no response to a conditioned stimulus (CS‚ e.g. the bell)‚ but a measurable unconditioned response (UCR‚ e.g. saliva production) to
Premium Behaviorism Classical conditioning Operant conditioning
Russian physiologist Ivan Pavlov was looking at salivation in dogs in response to being fed‚ when he noticed that his dogs would begin to salivate whenever he entered the room‚ even when he was not bringing them food. Pavlov (1902) started from the idea that there are some things that a dog does not need to learn. For example‚ dogs don’t learn to salivate whenever they see food. This reflex is ‘hard wired’ into the dog. It is an unconditioned response‚ However‚ when Pavlov discovered that any object
