    This study demonstrates that internal physiological processes, not external environmental cues, are the effective stimuli in Pavlovian conditioning. The organism actively generates its own stimuli during the conditioning process.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychology
    • Neuroscience
    • Behavioral Science

    Background:

    • Pavlovian conditioning traditionally focuses on environmental stimuli.
    • The role of internal physiological processes as effective stimuli remains debated.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate whether internal physiological processes or environmental input are the primary effective stimuli in Pavlovian conditioning.
    • To test the hypothesis that organisms generate their own effective stimuli.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized afterimages in color vision within a differential conditioning paradigm.
    • Employed two groups (G+B-, G-B+) with distinct sequential compound training involving colored circles and shock.
    • Measured electrodermal conditioned anticipatory and omission responses.

    Main Results:

    • Results supported the proximal hypothesis, indicating internal processes are key.
    • Conditioned responses to a novel diffuse light stimulus aligned with internal processing predictions.
    • Environmental stimulus definitions may be insufficient for understanding conditioning.

    Conclusions:

    • Effective stimuli in conditioning arise from internal physiological processes elicited by environmental input.
    • The processing organism actively creates the effective stimuli, challenging traditional environmental-centric views.
    • Future research should consider the organism's internal state when defining stimuli in conditioning.
