What will happen in a classical conditioning experiment if the likelihood of the US following the CS is 30% and the likelihood of the US being presented alone is also 30%?
A) There will be no conditioning, no matter how contiguous the CS and US.
B) There will be strong conditioning if the US arrives about half a second after the CS.
C) There will be no obvious effect at first, but after a rest period the CR will appear when the CS is presented.
D) The animal will show surprise reactions when the CS is presented.
Classical Conditioning Experiment
A research method used in behavioral psychology to study the association between a naturally occurring stimulus and a previously neutral stimulus.
CS
An abbreviation for conditioned stimulus, which in classical conditioning is a previously neutral stimulus that, after association with an unconditioned stimulus, comes to trigger a conditioned response.

Refers to the United States, a country located primarily in North America.
