Definitions:

Classical Conditioning Procedure

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

Temporal Conditioning

A form of classical conditioning where the timing of the conditioned stimulus (without an unconditioned stimulus) is enough to produce a conditioned response.

Simultaneous Conditioning

A classical conditioning method where both the conditioned and unconditioned stimuli are presented at the same time.

Backward Conditioning

A conditioning process where a stimulus that normally elicits a response is presented after the response, instead of before it, which can result in weakened associative learning.
