In the context of Ivan Pavlov's classical conditioning theory, when a conditioned stimulus (CS) is repeatedly presented without being paired with the unconditioned stimulus (UCS), resulting in the gradual weakening and eventual disappearance of the conditioned response (CR), what is this psychological process called?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
Understanding Classical Conditioning Extinction
According to Ivan Pavlov's theory of classical conditioning, when the conditioned stimulus (such as the sound of a bell) is repeatedly presented alone without the unconditioned stimulus (food), the conditioned response (salivation) gradually decreases and eventually ceases.
This psychological phenomenon is known as Extinction.
- Extinction: The disappearance of a learned response when the reinforcement is removed.
- Spontaneous Recovery: The reappearance of a weakened conditioned response after a pause.
- Stimulus Generalization: Responding to stimuli similar to the conditioned stimulus.
