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.
If I start to salivate in sympathetic parallel to the imagined hungry dogs, does that count?
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!"
What? Yeah, I know. A dog sitting at a bar having a beer would be a different joke. Read my joke again.
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.
Is Pavlova a national Australian treasure or something? Wikipedia seems unsure as to whether it originated in New Zealand or Australia.
I once read that reverse pavlovianism is the application of saliva to a dog's mouth in the attempt to ring a bell.
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.
Wife forget his name the other day..
'the Russian dude. Poblob. Polbob.. Palbob... The dog guy.' 'oh pavlov' 'yeah whatever, close enough'
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.
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.
