1. Compare and contrast the use of the term "reflex" by Descartes, Hall, and Pavlov.  

2. Explain the “spontaneous recovery” effect and the “rapid reacquisition” effect. What causes these effects to occur according to Pavlov and according to Bouton?  Who makes the stronger case and why?

3. Explain the "renewal effect." Describe a situation from your area of professional interest where this effect may be a problem. How would you try to reduce the effect?

4. Rescorla (1988) points to work by himself and by Kamin as changing the interpretation of Classical Conditioning. What was done? What was found? How did these results change our view of Classical Conditioning?

5. Choose a situation from your area of professional interest (or personal interest) in which you want to produce a classical conditioning effect. Describe a potential UCS from the viewpoint of Pavlov and Kamin. Explain why each would choose that event.

6. Choose a situation from your area of professional interest (or personal interest) in which you want to produce a classical conditioning effect. Describe how you would make one stimulus a strong CS+ and another a weak CS+ (or CS-) according to a contingency analysis vs. a contiguity analysis?

7. Apply Siegel's conditioning model of addiction to the case of coffee drinking. (Assume that caffeine is the UCS.) How does he explain tolerance, craving, and withdrawal effects? What should be the effect of drinking decaffeinated coffee according to Siegel? What should be the effect according to Pavlov?

8. Swithers (2015) argues that using no-calorie sweeteners like Splenda and Nutra may not be the answer to preventing obesity. Explain the Pavlovian conditioning problem. What would be a change to reduce this issue?
