Fading is the gradual change over successive trials of an antecedent stimulus that controls a response so that the response eventually occurs to a partially changed or completely new antecedent stimulus. Dimensions of stimuli fading: a dimension of a stimulus is any characteristic that can be measured on some continuum, fading occurs along dimensions of stimuli, example: loudness of the question that veronica presented to peter. Fading also occurs across changes in general situations or setting.
