  • What treat did you use?

  • @FULANINHOM - You can use anything loaded with sugar. I had students use breakfast cereal but you can also use yogurt-covered fruit.

  • :D Yey Rats! Was this project along the lines of the "Ring the bell and the dog salivates." concept?

  • Pavlov used Classical Conditioning whereas this is along the lines of Operant Conditioning following BF Skinner. Instead of dealing with "natural" responses these are "shaped" using a simple reinforcement.
