Having looked into Pavlov and the two types of conditioning and the effects they have on learning it was interesting to look at Guthrie’s own theories, although they have been described as simplistic to the Theorist world, his findings proved to be beneficial in the understanding of the ways in which learning takes place. He argued that the reinforcement of behaviour wasn’t necessary for learning to take place (Classical and Operant), he felt that a more practical approach and the use of muscles and movement was what triggered learning, as we know there are a variety of methods in which we learn; Visual, Auditory and Practical and he felt that repetition of behaviour rather than repletion of practical learning wasn’t satisfactory.

There are two types of conditioning, the first being Pavlov’s theory which we call Classical Conditioning, which is simply a learning process where two stimulus are combined repeatedly to adapt behavior will inevitably evoke a reflex, i.e.

Food + Bell = Salivation.

A further example of how we learn by association could be;
