scaffolding

Tuesday Dec 30 2014

My hands are cold. I am sad. I am ruminating here about what to say and do.  I ruminate often for a long period of time before I speak up.

As a child I learned how not to say what was happening to me, what I said in my head vs. what I spoke out loud, and not speaking at all for very long periods of time. My survival depended on it.


Classical conditioning is a process of behavior modification in which an innate response to a potent biological stimulus become expressed in response to a previously neutral stimulus; this is achieved by repeated pairings of the neutral stimulus and the potent biological stimulus that elicits the desired response.
