Academician Ivan Pavlov's teaching on types of nervous activity
In developing the doctrine of higher nervous activity by the method of conditioned reflexes, Academician Pavlov, in the very first period of his work, encountered the fact of different reactions in different test animals (dogs) to the same experimental influence. In an effort to determine the difference in these reactions, he found in experimental animals certain types of nervous activity, understanding by types "those or other complexes of the basic properties of the nervous system". The definition and delineation of these types developed gradually and was subjected to various modifications as more accurate experimental data were accumulated.
