Definitions:

Maximum Conditioning

The point at which a conditioned response reaches its highest level of strength or efficiency through the learning process.

Blocking

The prevention of the acquisition of a conditioned response (CR) to a second conditioned stimulus (CS2) when two stimuli are paired with an unconditioned stimulus (UCS) and conditioning has already occurred to the first stimulus (CS1).

Conditioned Stimulus

A stimulus that was once neutral but, upon being paired with an unconditioned stimulus, begins to elicit a conditioned response.

Unconditioned Stimulus

A stimulus that naturally and automatically triggers a response without any prior learning or conditioning.
