well i can try to explain....but i didn't do very well on my test :-). what it was that i didn't understand was how you get the A and Bs. but i discovered that A is # of CS- number of times something responds to a conditioned stimulus. and B is the number of times something responed before conditioning (US). so the equation then is B/A+B
say you trained a cat to come to the sound of a can opener....before training it didn't react= 0
aafter training the cat responds, say 9/10 times. so that would be 0/.9+0 = 0 which is full suppression. AHHHHHHH!!
ok i don't know what im talking about this isn't working....I guess this is why i didn't do very well! I don't think i explained that right because no matter wjhat # u put in you get 0. i thiought i had it....anyone else?
