Frank Caculba · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : A, Explanation :  Extinction and spontaneous recovery can occur in both classical and operant conditioning. In classical conditioning, extinction occurs when the conditioned stimulus is repeatedly presented without the unconditioned stimulus, leading to a decrease in the conditioned response. Spontaneous recovery can occur in classical conditioning when the extinguished conditioned response reappears after a period of rest. In operant conditioning, extinction occurs when a behavior that was previously reinforced is no longer reinforced, leading to a decrease in that behavior. Spontaneous recovery can occur in operant conditioning when the behavior that was previously extinguished reappears after a period of rest.

Extinction and spontaneous recovery occur in ________ conditioning.

A) both classical and operant
B) operant, but not classical,
C) classical, but not operant,
D) neither operant nor classical
