Definitions:

Memory Consolidation

The process by which short-term memories are transformed into long-term memories.

Long-Term Potentiation

An enduring increase in signal transmission between two neurons that results from stimulating them synchronously, believed to be a cellular mechanism for learning and memory.

Classically Conditioned Associations

Refers to the 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.

Cerebellum

is a part of the brain that plays a major role in motor control, balance, coordination, and fine-tuning of movements.
