Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
How does aquisition occur in classical conditioning?
A
Pairing of the conditioned stimulus (CS) with the neutral stimulus (NS)
B
Pairing the unconditioned stimulus (UCS) with the conditioned stimulus (CS)
C
Pairing of a neutral stimulus (NS) with the unconditioned stimulus (UCS)
D
Pairing the unconditioned response (UCR) with the neutral stimulus (NS)
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During the second phase of the classical conditioning process, the previously neutral stimulus is repeatedly paired with the unconditioned stimulus. As a result of this pairing, an association between the previously neutral stimulus and the UCS is formed.

Detailed explanation-2: -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.

Detailed explanation-3: -How does acquisition occur? In classical conditioning, repeated pairings of the conditioned stimulus (CS) and the unconditioned stimulus (UCS) eventually lead to acquisition. Once the association between the CS and UCS has been established, the response is said to have been acquired.

Detailed explanation-4: -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-5: -To understand classical conditioning, it is essential to be familiar with the following terms. A neutral stimulus is a stimulus that at first elicits no response. Pavlov introduced the ringing of the bell as a neutral stimulus. An unconditioned stimulus is a stimulus that leads to an automatic response.
