You do know I actually studied psychology, that humans evolved from animals with which we share a lot of our brain and that conditioning is well documented and has been for at least half a century?

I mentioned Pavlov's dogs because it's a classic experiment and about a hundred years old. A similar classic, that has often been used with humans is:
A human subject or an animal is subjected to an air puff directed to the eye, which elicits a blink reflex. If the air puff is repeatedly preceded by another stimulus, say a tone, the tone will eventually itself elicit a blink just before the air puff.
