Classical Conditioning Quiz

What is Classical Conditioning primarily concerned with?

• Strengthening behaviors through consequences

• Eliciting a response by pairing a neutral stimulus with a conditioned stimulus

• Learning through observation and imitation

• Developing cognitive skills through problem-solving

What does the term "Extinction" refer to in the context of Classical Conditioning?

• The strengthening of the conditioned response over time

• The disappearance of the conditioned response when the conditioned stimulus is no longer paired with the unconditioned stimulus

• The recovery of the conditioned response after a pause
