No, Pavlov trained dogs to salivate when they saw food. They would salivate when they saw food, then get it. They were trained like the goats were trained to pee then get a treat. Skinner had the box and did different forms of reinforcement on behavior.
No. Pavlov trained dogs to salivate when they heard a ring bell because they'd asociate the bell with the food. And it was unconscious. Skinner trained animals to follow certain behavior (in this case, pee) to obtain a benefit (food). And it was concious.
I've read it in a few books. When a dog wouldn't salivate, Pavlov would do an autopsy on the dog to find out why. He butchered lots of dogs in his experiments, an animal lover he was not.
