10. 2.3 process of classical conditioning
• Acquisition: The acquisition phase is the initial learning of the conditioned response – for
example, the dog salivating at the sound of the bell.
• Extinction: Once learnt, a conditioned response will not remain indefinitely. it is used to describe
the disappearance of the conditioned response brought about by repeatedly presenting the bell, for
example, without then presenting food.
• Generalization: After a conditioned response to one stimulus has been learnt, it may also respond
to similar stimuli without further training. If a child is bitten by a dog, the child may fear not only
that particular dog, but all dogs.
• Discrimination: it is the opposite of generalization. An individual learns to produce a conditioned
response to one stimulus but not to another similar stimulus. For example, a child may show a fear
response to freely roaming dogs, but may show no fear when a dog is on a lead.
