John Watson - Pequeno Albert
Tradução e legendas: http://www.youtube.com/user/felipefrog.
John Watson's "Little Albert" experiment
Designed to demonstrate Watson's theory of pure behaviourism - i.e. human behaviour is entirely formed through classical conditioning, and as infants humans are nothing more than blank disks.
Few subscribe to Watson's unbalanced view today, and subscribe to hybridized psychological theory, as different behaviours are a result of different processes. For example, no one has to teach a child what behaviour they should manifest when they are hungry, as it seems biologically they are pre-programmed to cry. Yet fears, or lack thereof, are generally subjective and often do depend on past experiences.
The later development of "Little Albert" is unknown, and Watson's experiment is considered grossly unethical by today's standards.

@MrTacitGrunt The loud noise makes the baby jump, because it's quick and unexpected, your own son/parent can make you jump if he/she catches you unexpected, and seeing as the baby saw the rat whist getting jumped by the noise, it's subconscious developed a fear from the "jump" supposedly caused by the mouse or anything with similar features.

Poor Little Albert :(, Oh well at least John B. Watson was trying to prove a point about how fears are formed in individuals.

Infelizmente os experimentos sem etica que acontecem hoje sao muito piores. Aparentemente os pesquisadores, psicologos ou medicos (sejam o que for) psicopaticos ficam fazendo uma miseria na vida dos vitimas e nao ficam na prisao ou no inferno com aquele Mengele. Isto e real. Sou vitima e ja sei bem como e. Acho que no Brasil as leis sao melhores - nos EUA isso nao e bem controlado e aparentement tem partes do governo que formam parte do abuso e a injustica para nos vitimas.

@TheCarlos64 OMG - are you really clever trying to sound dumb on purpose or are you really stupid trying to sound clever? Seriously??? Firstly, all our emotions are instinctual - the labels and interpretations are learned (in terms of negative emotions 100% learned incorrectly) . Irrational fears (phobias) are rarely reasoned out - that's ther point of them being irrational. If you do reason out your phobia then you have just self-taught (learned) a new way of thinking.

@DanteWhite Really? So you think the two thriteen year odls who blew themselves up last month in the name of Allah were born suicide bombers and would have committed their acts of terrorism if taken at birth to live with a buddhist middle class family in London, UK? Twat.

Perhaps Watson's dislike for children was actually a dislike for the lack of cultivation of their behaviors by the parents. True today. Children were and are still often not being taught behaviors so much as they are just "developed" out of whatever comes along.... He advised parents to be proactive rather than leave it up to dumb luck. It's true some behaviors would indicate that children may be "raised by wolves".
