Under Ivan Pavlov's Classical Conditioning Theory, when a Conditioned Stimulus (CS) is repeatedly presented without any Unconditioned Stimulus (US), resulting in the Conditioned Response (CR) gradually weakening and eventually disappearing, which of the following terms describes this psychological phenomenon according to Pavlov's conditioning framework?
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted above.
Detailed Explanation
According to Ivan Pavlov's Classical Conditioning theory, when the conditioned stimulus (e.g., a bell) is repeatedly presented without the unconditioned stimulus (e.g., food), the conditioned response of salivation gradually decreases and ultimately ceases. This process is known as Extinction.
In contrast, after a time lapse, this response may reappear spontaneously in a weaker form, which is termed Spontaneous Recovery.
