Little Albert

Did the results of Watson and Rayner's experiment support their hypothesis's? Explain.
     -Watson and Rayner's result of their experiment supported their hypothesis by showing that Little Albert
        was frightened by the sight of the same object they had showed him before because they would make a
         frightening sould that would scare him every time they showed that object.

How did Albert's respond become gerneralized?
   - Albert's respond became generalized by showing him white furry objects but he showed no fear towars dissimilar toys.

How were the principles of classical conditioning used to reduce Peter's fear of rabbits?
   - Jones helped peter get over his fear of rabbits by pairing the sight of rabbits with a pleasent experience's like eating ice cream or getting special attention.
