Learning: is a process by which behaviour or knowledge changes as a result of experience: cognitive learning: using thinking to learn, associative learning: association to particular stimuli. Classical conditioning: learning that occurs when a neutral stimulus elicits a response that was original caused by another stimulus. Unconditioned stimulus (us): is a stimulus that elicits a reflective response without learning. Unconditioned response (ur): is a reflexive, unlearned reaction to an unconditioned stimulus: ex. meat-powder created salivation in dogs that was unconditioned. Conditioned stimulus (cs): a once-neutral stimulus that later elicits a conditioned response because it has a history of being paired with an unconditioned stimulus.
