  • Did Watson believe the only innate fear we have is fear of loud noises and every other fear is learned/conditioned?

    If so, he was wrong. Just like the example above, the driver was in fear in the initial accident. There were no triggers, just fear of death/injury.

  • @hogandaas I don't think Watson believed any fears were built in. He appears to have believed that all fear is learned, perhaps very quickly, but learned.
