Definitions:

Classical Conditioning

Classical conditioning is a learning process that occurs when two stimuli are repeatedly paired; a response that is at first elicited by the second stimulus is eventually elicited by the first stimulus alone.

Conditioned Stimulus (CS)

A stimulus that was once neutral but, after being paired with a fundamental stimulus, ultimately induces a learned reaction.

Unconditioned Stimulus (US)

In classical conditioning, a stimulus that unconditionally—naturally and automatically—triggers a response.

Conditioned Response (CR)

A learned response to a previously neutral stimulus that, after being repeatedly paired with an unconditioned stimulus, elicits a reaction.
