That's just thought association, classical (pavlovian) conditioning is about a conditioned stimulus creating a learned response, not a thought, eg if you were to be shudder every time you heard 'Pavlov' because you thought of dogs.

Way to ruin the fun, poindexter

[-] EffortlessEffluvium@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

Oh that’s just JackGreenEarth’s conditioned response

[-] CeruleanRuin 5 points 1 month ago

If I start to salivate in sympathetic parallel to the imagined hungry dogs, does that count?

Not everyone thinks of dog, there's a bit of a bell curve.

[-] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

What else do there Pavlov?

[-] ThePinkUnicorn@lemdro.id 7 points 1 month ago

I thought of the VR shooter Pavlov shack first.

[-] Comment105@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

I also thought of that one.

For anyone curious it's Counter Strike in VR, basically.

[-] model_tar_gz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

That’s pretty normal. Like, less than sigma.

So Pavlov was sitting in a bar, having a nice cold beer. As the next person came in, the door caused a bell to ring. Pavlov panics: "Oh no! I forgot to feed the dog!"

[-] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Pavlov is the Dr, not the dog.

[-] lettruthout@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago

What? Yeah, I know. A dog sitting at a bar having a beer would be a different joke. Read my joke again.

[-] Frozengyro@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

I know, I'm trying to make the Frankenstein joke

[-] sik0fewl@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

If you watch the movie, you'll see that the real monster is Dr Frankenstein.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

The real doctor is the monsters we met along the way.

[-] MindTraveller@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

And the creature is Adam Frankenstein

Intelligence is knowing that Frankenstein was the doctor, wisdom is understanding you don't have to repeat it every time the subject is mentioned.

[-] Ironfacebuster@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Actually Frankenstein was the incense scent

[-] XPost3000@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 month ago

Next you'll be telling me that Schrödinger wasn't a cat

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

How can you know if he was or if he wasn’t a cat?

[-] kungen@feddit.nu 8 points 1 month ago

Frankenstein is the monster?

[-] LinusSexTips@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Wait, the princess is Zelda?!

[-] finley@lemm.ee 12 points 1 month ago

i actually think of a bell. sometimes i think of drool.

[-] Brenda_babylon@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 1 month ago

There's a dog?!

[-] Underwaterbob@lemm.ee 10 points 1 month ago

My daughter was watching Bluey the other day, and Bingo wanted some "Pavlova". I immediately thought it was some reference to them all being dogs and Pavlov.

Nope. Turns out it's actually a dessert named after a Russian ballerina that originated in either New Zealand or Australia in the early 20th century.

[-] Serpent@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I think if any Australians see you you are in deep trouble!

I always think of the VR game these days

[-] thenextguy@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

I once read that reverse pavlovianism is the application of saliva to a dog's mouth in the attempt to ring a bell.

[-] gmtom@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

That's not what pavlovian conditioning is though??

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Sure it is, strong association through repetition.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 6 points 1 month ago

I think of a VR-only shooter where all the kids try to climb on me because I'm usually the tallest motherfucker in the game.

[-] TheMightyCanuck@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

Wife forget his name the other day..

'the Russian dude. Poblob. Polbob.. Palbob... The dog guy.' 'oh pavlov' 'yeah whatever, close enough'

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Pob Loblaw’s Dog Blog

[-] bitchkat@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

I always add an 'a' to the end and wish I could buy pavlova in the USA.

[-] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Get some eggs and go crazy

[-] ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 month ago

That's just how words work

[-] Rageagainstbelief@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Why is my mouth watering?

[-] Tja@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago
[-] Sequentialsilence@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I first heard of Pavlov from the game incredible machines, where if you dangle a banana in front of a mandrill (looks like a baboon to 6 year old me) he would run on the treadmill giving you power for your machines. So I always think of a baboon when I hear pavlov.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago
[-] CeruleanRuin 2 points 1 month ago

And then I start to drool!

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago
[-] curiousaur@reddthat.com 1 points 1 month ago

This is some Mitch Headberg shit.

[-] zippythezigzag@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I feel like im on the outside of a big joke or something. Why do people think of a dog?

edit: nevermind. my wife just explained it.
