Ivan Pavlov Encyclopedia |
 | | Pavlov is widely known for first describing the phenomenon now known as classical conditioning in his experiments with dogs. |
| | Pavlov himself was not favorable towards Marxism, but as a Nobel laureate he was seen as a valuable political asset. |
| | As Pavlov's work became known in the West, particularly through the writings of John B. Watson, the idea of "conditioning" as an automatic form of learning became a key concept in the developing specialism of comparative psychology, and the general approach to psychology that underlay it, behaviorism. |
