How does reconditioning differ from spontaneous recovery?

A) Reconditioning refers to processes that are seen only in classical conditioning, whereas spontaneous recovery refers to processes that are seen only in operant conditioning.
B) Reconditioning refers to the addition of a second CS that precedes the original CS of a CS-US pairing, whereas spontaneous recovery refers to the elimination of conditioned fear.
C) Reconditioning refers to the presentation of the CS after extinction and a subsequent rest period, whereas spontaneous recovery refers to the act of presenting further CS-US trials after extinction.
D) Reconditioning refers to the act of presenting further CS-US trials after extinction whereas spontaneous recovery refers to the presentation of the CS after extinction and a subsequent rest period.

Reconditioning

The process of retraining or rehabilitating someone's behavior, physical condition, or responses to stimuli, often after an injury or period of inactivity.

Spontaneous Recovery

The return of a conditioned response that had been previously eliminated, following a timeframe where there was no contact with the conditioned stimulus.

CS-US Trials

In conditioning, trials where a conditioned stimulus (CS) is presented before an unconditioned stimulus (US) to create an association.

  • Identify the differences between extinction, second-order conditioning, reconditioning, and discrimination in the context of classical conditioning.
  • Identify and elucidate the concept of spontaneous recovery and its ramifications for conditioning processes.
  • Explain the process of reconditioning and how it differs from spontaneous recovery.
