Little Albert

1. Yes the experiment did support their hypothesis.  After the loud sound each animal they showed Little Albert he began to cry.
2.  Albert's response was generalized because he was first scared of the rat and then they showed him a rabbit and dog and since he knew they were both soft like the mouse he became scared of those too.
3.  In the case of Peter, they used classical conditioning by making him have a good experience around rabbits so that after awhile he would stop being scared of rabbits.
