Pavlov's experiment involved the conditioning of dogs to salivate at the sound of a bell. Initially, the bell (conditioned stimulus) did not elicit salivation (unconditioned response). However, after pairing the bell with the presentation of food (unconditioned stimulus), the dogs learned to associate the bell with food and would salivate (conditioned response) at the sound of the bell alone. Therefore, the salivation after hearing the tone is the conditioned response.
