Learning through the association of a new stimulus and an old response.
A
classical conditioning
B
operant conditioning
C
observational learning
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Classical conditioning, also called Pavlovian conditioning and respondent conditioning, is learning through the association of a neutral stimulus with a biologically potent stimulus. The biologically potent stimulus is an involuntary response also known as reflex or reflexive response.

Detailed explanation-2: -In classical conditioning, a person or animal learns to associate a neutral stimulus (the conditioned stimulus, or CS) with a stimulus (the unconditioned stimulus, or US) that naturally produces a behavior (the unconditioned response, or UR).

Detailed explanation-3: -Classical conditioning (also known as Pavlovian or respondent conditioning) is learning through association and was discovered by Pavlov, a Russian physiologist. In simple terms, two stimuli are linked together to produce a new learned response in a person or animal.

Detailed explanation-4: -Classical conditioning refers to learning that occurs when a neutral stimulus (e.g., a tone) becomes associated with a stimulus (e.g., food) that naturally produces a behaviour. After the association is learned, the previously neutral stimulus is sufficient to produce the behaviour.

Detailed explanation-5: -Classical conditioning is a type of associative learning in which a neutral stimulus comes to elicit a response when it is associated with a stimulus that already produces that response. Differentiate between the US, UR, CS, and CR.
