IVAN PAVLOV (1849-1936) the Russian psychologist who won the Noble Prize in 1904 showed how reflexes, animal reactions to stimuli, could be predictably fixed, conditioned, by associations. If, for example, a dog salivates, when it sees food and if bringing food is uniformly preceded by ringing of bell, soon the dog will begin to associate the bell with the coming food and will be conditioned to salivate at the sound of the bell. This discovery of conditioning by association has turned out to perhaps the most significant finding of psychology and is the direct base of the Gestalt and the behavioral branches of the field.
