Sechenov (1829-1905) held the belief that it was external stimulation and not thought that caused all behaviour (Hergenhahn‚ 2009). However‚ it was Ivan P. Pavlov and Vladimir M.

Ivan Pavlov‚ a Russian physiologist discovered the classical conditioning in the 1920s. Classical conditioning focuses on the learning of involuntary emotional or physiological responses.

Pavlov discovered that the dog would not only salivate when feed the meat powder but also at the sight of its feeder‚ the sound of the door opening and closing‚ and at the sight of the food bowl. Pavlov realized that the dog was conditioned by these events which signaled that food was coming‚ which in turn triggered

Classical Conditioning was developed by Ivan Pavlov. Pavlov used the experiment of dogs and food so as to measure the levels of salivation that a dog produced when food had been associated with the assistant. He developed this experiment when he noticed that the dog was starting to salivate at the sight
