The chimpanzee got the box, placed it properly to stand on it, stepped on it and finally jumped to get the banana. And it got it! After this experience, Köhler suggested that, chimpanzees solve problems in a flash of insight. It is like the ah-ha feeling.

Yanıt Açıklaması: Principles of classical conditioning are commonly used in TV commercials. A product to sell is a NS, initially. So, that product does not produce any response before conditioning (as another behavioral consequence, people do not buy it). During conditioning (that is, during a TV commercial), the product is paired with a stimulus, which naturally produces positive feelings (that is, UCS). During this process, the product and the UCS are presented together. The product in the commercial, which is associated with a stimulus producing positive feelings, becomes a CS, so the product produces positive feelings at the end. As a result of this repeated procedure, people start to buy the product to feel good.
