Question

When Shontrelle sits in a certain chair at her eye doctor's office , she finds herselt blinking more than normal . She wonders if this is related to the fact that every time she sits in that chair , her eye doctor shoots a puff of air in her eyes , making her blink . What is the unconditioned stimulus ?

Answer 1

An unconditioned stimulus is a stimulus that leads to an automatic response.

Each time she sat in the chair the doctor will shoot a puff of air in her eyes, which causes her to blink more.

The unconditioned stimulus is what causes her to blink which is the puff of air shoot in her eyes.
