|
|
unconditioned stimulus
|
in classical conditioning, a stimulus that elicits an unlearned, automatic response

in classical conditioning, an unlearned, automatic response
|
|

|
|
Conditioned Stimulus |
a previously neutral stimulus that, because of pairing with an unconditioned stimulus, now causes a conditioned response
|
|
taste aversion
|
type of classical conditioning in which a previously desirable or neutral food comes to be perceived as repugnant because it is associated with negative stimulation
|
|
Extinction |

|
|
spontaneous recovery
|
the reappearance of an extinguished conditioned response after some time has passed

Discrimination |
in classical conditioning, the ability to distinguish the conditioned stimulus from other stimuli that are similar (2) unfair treatment of a person or group based on prejudice

a fear-reduction technique based on the principles of classical conditioning that involves exposing the individual to a harmless stimulus until fear responses to that stimulus are extinguished
|
|
