Spontaneous Recovery

A phenomenon in learning where a previously extinguished response re-emerges after a pause in exposure to the conditioning stimulus.

Learned Response

A behavior developed as the result of conditioning, where an individual learns to respond in a certain way to a specific stimulus.

CS (Conditioned Stimulus)

A stimulus that was neutral but becomes associated with an unconditioned stimulus to elicit a conditioned response in classical conditioning.
