    We do refer to done actions or reactions as behaviors.

    Tell squidward. He doesn't think reactions like salivating are behaviors. Seems Pavlov wasn't a behaviorist by his standards.

    Reflexes are not behaviors

    Except for behaviors like instinctual reactions, or do you reject all of modern psychology

    Those aren't reflexes.
    These are behaviors normally associated with feeding which the Dog has now been conditioned to exhibit at the sound of a bell.
    The dog has to consciously process the sound.

    Reflexes involve stimuli being processed through neural arcs not involving the brain or the conscious perception of the stimuli

    well I'm glad you admit they are behaviors but the point is they are not consciously driven they are instinctual reflexes and they are indeed behaviors.


    the behavior was not hearing the sound. It was salivating and the dog didn't consciously think start salivating now keep going keep going keep going stop. That is simply a reaction.

    reactions like salivating or arousal. Reactions that are behaviors

    They are processed consciously and acted on


    From which the stimuli is processed consciously

    I can’t. You asked for the evidence, and you were given it. You’ve been furiously dodging ever since. It’s amusing.

    That doesn't work either. I spent the better part of two decades staring at tits trying to make myself like them.
