OPERANT CONDITIONING

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The conditioned stimulus (CS):
A
is the response to the US.
B
is typically originally the neutral stimulus that gains the power to cause the CR.
C
triggers an unconditioned response reflexively or automatically when the CR happens.
D
is what triggers the US to occur.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In Pavlov’s experiment, the sound of the tone served as the conditioned stimulus that, after learning, produced the conditioned response (CR), which is the acquired response to the formerly neutral stimulus.

Detailed explanation-2: -A neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus when used together with an unconditioned stimulus. With repeated exposures to both the neutral stimulus and the unconditioned stimulus at the same time, the neutral stimulus will begin to elicit a response known as a conditioned response.

Detailed explanation-3: -A conditioned stimulus is a stimulus that can eventually trigger a conditioned response. In the described experiment, the conditioned stimulus was the ringing of the bell, and the conditioned response was salivation. It is important to note that the neutral stimulus becomes the conditioned stimulus.

Detailed explanation-4: -The conditioned stimulus (CS): is originally the neutral stimulus that gains the power to cause the CR. triggers an unconditioned response reflexively or automatically when the CR happens. is what triggers the US to occur.

Detailed explanation-5: -The classical conditioning theory suggests that a neutral stimulus can be paired with an unconditioned stimulus repeatedly to form associative learning. The previously neutral stimulus then becomes a conditioned stimulus (CS) that can trigger the same response as the unconditioned stimulus.
