In light of the Spooky Season, Nick and Robyn discuss horrible Psych experiments that press ethical boundaries. The First Episode of this two part series. Nick discusses the trauma and harm of a baby known as Little Albert as the experimenters try and condition this baby like Ivan Pavlov did to a dog. This Horrible and Horrifying experiment eventually was deemed unethical as it should have been.
What if you can manipulate someone's behavior? More specifically, make them drool at the sound of a bell or make them fear whatever you desire. And no, I'm not talking about some crazy super-villain power…I'm talking about Classical Conditioning. In this week's episode, we discuss Pavlov's dog and the infamous Little Albert Experiment and what it teaches us about our behavior. This episode also features extra notes for AP Psychology students in preparation for the exam.
This week's minisode is focused on the classic "Little Albert" experiment....if we can even call it an experiment. Turns out there is almost nothing that can be concluded from this study that has been taught in every Psych 101 course!

This week Abby talks about one of the most compelling stories of a remembered past life, the story of Dorothy Eady/Omm Sety. Then, Ashlyn explains one f'ed up experiment that studied the creation of phobias in infants. This episode has everything: a cracked out cohost, a very specific hymn, a middleman for produce, sleep hieroglyphing, a vilified rat, a baby addict, the expectations set on teenagers in the 1920s, and a scandalous divorce with deets on the down low.

There are some pretty famous research studies from the field of psychology that are fascinating to explore and provide foundational principles on which we base many aspects of our knowledge of humans today. In this series, I will explain some of those early research studies and how we can glean practical truths to apply to parenting. In this episode, we will learn of Little Albert and conditioned fear.
We’ve been on two curiosity kicks lately it seems: The ethics of human experimentation and how to make our corpses useful once our meat suits cease to house our consciousness.

This episode is slightly different from the others. Instead of covering one topic, I share a collection of my latest thoughts. Some mini-topics I discuss are John Watson's Little Albert experiment & how phobias/other behaviors can be conditioned, the connection music has to our mood & personality, and the importance in saying NO. I hope you like this style episode! Follow @andeverythinginbetweenpodcast on Instagram for more.
Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is The Blue-Minimizing Robot, Part 3: Basics of Human Reinforcement, published by Scott Alexander. Today: some more concepts from reinforcement learning and some discussion on their applicability to human behavior. For example: most humans do things even when they seem unlikely to result in delicious sugar water. Is this a violation of behaviorist principles? No. For one thing, yesterday's post included a description of secondary reinforcers, those reinforcers which are not hard-coded evolutionary goods like food and sex, but which nevertheless have a conditioned association with good things. Money is the classic case of a secondary reinforcer among humans. Little colored rectangles are not naturally reinforcing, but from a very young age most humans learn that they can be used to buy pleasant things, like candy or toys or friends. Behaviorist-inspired experiments on humans often use money as a reward, and have yet to run into many experimental subjects whom it fails to motivate1. Speaking of friends, status may be a primary reinforcer specific to social animals. I don't know if being able to literally feel reinforcement going on is a real thing, but I maintain I can feel the rush of reward when someone gives me a compliment. If that's too unscientific for you, consider studies in which monkeys will "exchange" sugary juice for the opportunity to look at pictures of high status monkeys, but demand extra juice in exchange for looking at pictures of low status monkeys. Although certain cynics might consider money and status an exhaustive list, we may also add moral, aesthetic, and value-based considerations. Evolutionary psychology explains why these might exist and Bandura called some of them "internal reinforcement". But more complicated reinforcers alone are not sufficient to bridge the gap between lever-pushing pigeons and human behavior. Humans have an ability to select for or against behaviors without trying them. For example: most of us would avoid going up to Mr. T and giving him the finger. But most of us have not personally tried this behavior and observed the consequences. Is this the result of pure reason? No; the rational part of our mind is the part telling us that Mr. T is probably sixty years old by now and far too deep in the media spotlight to want to risk a scandal and jail time by beating up a random stranger. So where exactly is the reluctance coming from? GENERALIZATION Roko wrote in his post Ugh Fields that "your brain propagates psychological pain back to the earliest reliable stimulus for the punishment". This deserves more investigation. Suppose you did go into a bar one night, see Mr. T, give him the finger, and get beaten up. What behavior would you avoid in the future based on this experience? The event itself does not immediately provide enough information to distinguish among "don't go into bars", "don't go out at night", "don't interact with people who have facial hair", and the correct answer "don't offend scary-looking people". This information has to come from your pre-existing model of reality, your brain's evolved background assumptions, and some clever guesswork. Let's get back to the hilariously unethical experiments. Little Albert was an eight month old child who briefly starred in an experiment by behaviorist John Watson. Watson showed him a fuzzy white rat. Albert seemed to like the rat well enough. After Albert liking the rat had been confirmed, Watson showed him the rat again, but this time also played a very loud and scary noise; he repeated this intervention until, as expected, Albert was terrified of the white rat. But it wasn't just fuzzy white rats Albert didn't like. Further investigation determined that Albert was also afraid of brown rabbits (fuzzy animal) and Santa Claus (fuzzy white beard). With his incipient powers of c...

Hi Teamsters! Thank goodness we now have ethical practices that keep psychologists from instilling fears into young children without parents' consent; unfortunately, Little Albert was not so lucky. Carey Ann explores one root cause of fears and phobias as it relates to classical conditioning. On a lighter note, Allison recounts the causes of the Great Depression locally and worldwide. Stay tuned! Free recipes this episode that are sure to become a family favorite ... or not?
Today Mr. Black will go into the Power of being Conditioned with Fear. Pavlov isfamous for his conditioned response research regarding a dog, hunger and a stimulus.During the same time there was an experiment called Little Albert, that showed thepower of ‘Fear Conditioning'. Todays show is based on research and information fromthe book, “Mozart's Brain and the fighter Pilot, Unleashing Your Brain's Potential”, by Neuropsychiatrist and bestselling author Richard Restak, M.D. What's most important is Mr. Black will prove to you that we are being Fear Conditioned by the media and the political elite.

Today on Like It Matters Radio Mr. Black goes subconscious on us. The Little Albert experiment was a famous psychology experiment conducted by behaviorist John B. Watson and graduate student Rosalie Rayner. They did research that showed how we as human beings can be manipulated through conditioning. In order to be in control of ourselves we need to understand how we can be manipulated by outside forces to create a desired outcome! The Little Albert experiment presents an example of how classical conditioning can be used to condition an emotional response. Tune into Like It Matters Radio for an hour of power as Mr. Black has us consider: Where else in our lives are we being played, Player? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Some of the most legendary experiments ever conducted in psychology are egregiously unethical by today's standards. From Watson's Little Albert to Bandura's Bobo Dolls to Zimbardo's Prison Study, these experiments are ones researchers would not dare conduct today. There is something about experiments like these, though, that makes them part of the foundation on which psychology is built upon. Stanley Milgram's experiment on obedience to authority is perhaps the posterchild for the “unethical but influential” category of psychological experiments. Related reading: Milgram, S. (1963). Behavioral Study of Obedience. The Journal of Abnormal and Social Psychology, 67(4), 371-378. https://www.insightfulthinkersmedia.com/
In the early 1920's a doctor performed experiments on an unidentified infant they called Little Albert.

In this episode, we look at Classical Conditioning, Operant Conditioning, and how to build a new habit. Join Blinkist: http://blinkist.com/tinyleaps Why We Want to Build Habits Habits make taking action easy Habits allow behavior changes to stick Classical Conditioning Classical conditioning is a technique frequently used in behavioral training in which a neutral stimulus is paired with a naturally occurring stimulus. Eventually, the neutral stimulus comes to evoke the same response as the naturally occurring stimulus, even without the naturally occurring stimulus presenting itself. Throughout the course of three distinct phases, the associated stimulus becomes known as the conditioned stimulus and the learned behavior is known as the conditioned response. Examples: "John B. Watson's experiment with Little Albert is a perfect example of the fear response.10 The child initially showed no fear of a white rat, but after the rat was paired repeatedly with loud, scary sounds, the child would cry when the rat was present. The child's fear also generalized to other fuzzy white objects. This experiment illustrates how phobias can form through classical conditioning. In many cases, a single pairing of a neutral stimulus (a dog, for example) and a frightening experience (being bitten by the dog) can lead to a lasting phobia (being afraid of dogs)." Operant Conditioning Operant conditioning (sometimes referred to as instrumental conditioning) is a method of learning that occurs through reinforcements and punishments. Through operant conditioning, an association is made between a behavior and a consequence for that behavior. When a desirable result follows an action, the behavior becomes more likely to occur again in the future. Responses followed by adverse outcomes, on the other hand, become less likely to happen again in the future. Examples: "If your child acts out during a shopping trip, you might give him a treat to get him to be quiet. Because you have positively reinforced the misbehavior, he will probably be more likely to act out again in the future in order to receive another treat."

Troop is an R&B group from Pasadena, California. The group has had five number-one singles and ten top-ten singles on the Billboard R&B Singles chart.[1] They have also completed five albums, which include three certified gold and one certified platinum album. TROOP is an acronym for "Total Respect Of Other People".[2] The group is most notable for a series of number-one R&B hits, including popular cover versions of the songs "All I Do Is Think of You" and "Sweet November", originally performed by musical acts The Jackson 5 and The Deele, respectively. They also had a number-one hit with the original song "Spread My Wings". The group got its start in the late 1980s after they won a televised Puttin' on the Hits talent contest that later drew interest from record labels. Troop, consisting of childhood friends Steve Russell, Allen McNeil, John Harreld, Rodney Benford, and Reggie Warren, soon signed to Atlantic Records and released their debut single "Mamacita" from their self-titled debut album in 1988. "Mamacita" reached Number 2 on the Billboard's R&B Chart.[1]Troop's second album Attitude included the hit singles "Spread My Wings" and "All I Do Is Think of You" (a Jackson 5 cover), which were both number one on the Billboard R&B singles chart, and remained in the top 10 for several weeks.[1] Attitude was certified platinum[3] in 1990. Their third album Deepa was released in 1992, from which the single "Sweet November" made number one on the Billboard R&B singles chart. The group followed up Deepa with two more albums, A Lil' Sumpin' Sumpin' (1994) and Mayday (1998), both of which were re-released in 2005.After the release of Mayday in 1998, Troop took a hiatus as individual members worked behind the scenes on. various writing and producing projects, collaborations, and other business endeavors.In 2004 Troop regrouped and began touring the United States and finishing up their sixth album. Since returning, Troop has headlined a number of shows and also shared the stage with artists they had toured with in the past, such as Boyz II Men, Brian McKnight, Keith Sweat, Silk, Mario, and Jon B..Troop have also been showcased on The Late Show with David Letterman, Soul Train, The Arsenio Hall Show, It's Showtime at the Apollo, and appeared in the feature film New Jack City singing a cappella. Additionally, the group appeared on the New Jack City soundtrack with Queen Latifah and Levert, in a medley featuring cover versions of The O'Jays' "For the Love of Money" and Stevie Wonder's "Living for the City".In October 2006, Troop contacted the Internet Radio Station The Mixx and have worked together to make The Mixx the radio home of Troop. Steve Russell dubs the singing voices of several minor characters (among them doo-wop singer Little Albert and the five brothers who make up the Jackson 5 pastiche "The Campbell Connection") in the 2006 film version of the Broadway musical Dreamgirls. Steve Russell also wrote "Take You Down"[4] for Chris Brown, "No Air"[5] for Jordin Sparks, and the Grammy Award-winning "Invisible"[6] for Jennifer Hudson. In February, 2010 he released his debut solo CD titled So Random, which is the first release from his own label Motel Music Media. Allen McNeil released his debut solo album Hybernation in January, 2010. Allen McNeil released his sophomore solo album Send For Me in November, 2011. In addition to releasing music, Allen McNeil is said to have been auditioning for acting roles and accepting scripts. In 2014, John "Jon Jon" Harreld announced that he would be working on a solo project, and released a single covering Luther Vandross' "Never Too Much", which should also appear on the project.

What was the name of that baby in John Watson's famous videos in which he attempts to demonstrate that fears can be acquired through conditioning (pairing a loud noise with a furry animal)? A few years ago we were presented with information indicating that a boy named Douglas Merrite was the true identity of "Little Albert". The data looked pretty convincing at that time. However, a few pieces of that data simply did not fit together for researchers Nancy Digdon, Russell Powell and Ben Harris. After another lengthy search into the past, these researchers determined that another child fits the description and the facts of who "Little Albert" really was and that boy's name is William Albert Barger. As is often true in life, the simple facts require fewer leaps in logic and these facts make the conclusion that William Albert is "Little Albert" inescapable. In this episode I lay out some of these facts and I think you'll be convinced as well. One of those facts: unfortunately, William Albert Barger died in 2007 so although we weren't able to talk with him, it appears that he lead a full and rewarding life.

What does the movie Shrek have to do with labeling, psychiatric illness and the self-fulfilling prophecy? In this episode I take a close look at the well-known Rosenhan study. This was the study in which pseudopatients pretend to hear voices and on the basis of this they get admitted to psychiatric centers. Then they were told to act normally. It took an average of 19 days for these pseudopatients to be discharged from the hospital and even then they were diagnosed as schizophrenia in remission. Does this study show that psychiatric diagnoses are not only useless but also possibly harmful? Or do we find what we found back in episode 47 on Little Albert, and what we found in episode 36 on Kitty Genovese that what we thought we knew is largely wrong.
Little Albert - one of the most famous subjects in the history of psychology - has finally been identified. Researchers spent 7 years tracking down every possible lead in order to discover who John Watson's "Albert B" really was. In this video episode I take you through each step of the extensive detective work to uncover his identity. It's a fascinating, creative, and in the end touching journey. Some never seen before pictures are included. Join me in this episode of The Psych Files.
Think you know a lot about the little Albert experiment conducted by John Watson? Well, guess what - you'd be surprised at how much of the story is simply not true. If you're wondering whatever happened to little Albert, whether the little Albert study created a lasting phobia in a small boy, or even what place this story has in the history of behaviorism, then I suggest you take a listen to this episode of The Psych Files and get the facts on this fascinating part of psychology's history.
