Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In Watson's attempt to produce a phobia in Albert B., the rat was presented as the conditioned stimulus, paired with a loud noise which served as the unconditioned stimulus, evoking an unconditioned response of fear. Over time, the rat became associated with the loud noise and began to elicit a conditioned response of fear, even in the absence of the loud noise. Therefore, the rat was the conditioned stimulus and fear was the conditioned response.
