Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A loud noise was used as an unconditional response for conditioning Albert to fear a white rat. Every time the rat was presented, a loud noise was made behind Albert's head. This created a negative association in Albert's mind between the rat and the loud noise, eventually leading to a conditioned fear response towards the rat alone.
