Pavlov's dog refers to a famous experiment by Ivan Pavlov, where he conditioned dogs to salivate at the sound of a bell by repeatedly pairing the bell with the presentation of food. This experiment demonstrated the concept of classical conditioning, showing how a neutral stimulus can trigger a conditioned response after being associated with an unconditioned stimulus.
