Pavlov was a behavioral psychologist, who rang a bell when he fed the dog, so the dog would salivate. Then he rang the bell & didn't feed the dog, but it still salivated, because it was conditioned to be fed when it heard the bell.

Ivan Pavlov did an experiment involving a dog, in which every time the dog was fed he would ring a bell. Then after doing this for several days when he rang a bell the dog would salivate. It is called conditioned response.

Ivan Pavlov would stimulate an animals unconditioned reflexes by ringing a bell each time before feeding the dogs, after awhile the dogs came associated with the sound and just from the sound of the bell they would start to drool even with out the sight or smell of food.

Yes you have it right, Pavlov did an experiment whereby he rang a bell everytime he rang it, he fed the dogs, after a while the dogs would sailvate, in anticipation of eating when they heard the bell.

It's quite a number of things even a band but I think you're referring to the term pavolvs dog which refers too someone who merely reacts to a situation rather than uses critical thinking. There is lots of information about this on the net including wikipedia check it out
