Contextual conditioning is a form of of classical conditioning that involves the association of a stimulus with a particular context or environment to produce a specific response. This means that the behavior is influenced not only by the stimulus itself, but also by the surrounding context in which the stimulus is presented.
A contextual study is an analysis or exploration of a subject within its specific context or surroundings. It involves examining how the subject is influenced by and contributes to its environment, history, culture, and other relevant factors. The goal of a contextual study is to gain a deeper understanding of the subject by considering its broader context.

Involuntary conditioning is associated with classical conditioning, while voluntary conditioning is associated with operant conditioning. Classical conditioning involves learning by association between stimuli, while operant conditioning involves learning by reinforcement or punishment of behaviors.
Backward conditioning is a type of classical conditioning in which the conditioned stimulus is presented after the unconditioned stimulus. This is less effective than forward conditioning because the CS lacks predictive value if it follows the US.
Foreground contextual condtioning occurs when an emotionally salient event (such as a shock or some food) is presented in an environment (a context) with no discrete cues to predict it. In this case, the context is the most direct predictor of the salient event and conditioning to the context will be strong. Background contextual conditioning occurs when the same emotionally salient event is presented in a context but each event is predicted by a discete cue (for example, a tone that comes on for 10 seconds before the shock is delivered). The context is always "on" or there (in the "background")and gives no timing about when the shock will happen. The tone only appears when the shock is about to be delivered. In this case there are still pairings of the context and the shock and some conditioning will accrue to the context, however this will be less than would occur if the cue was not present. In this case, the tone cue is in the "foreground" and the rat will learn that the tone predicts the shock, and this learning will "block" learning about the context since the tone is a better predictor of the shock.
A contextual question is a question that is framed with consideration of the surrounding circumstances, environment, or specific situation in order to gather a deeper understanding or insight. It helps to elicit more detailed or relevant information based on the specific context in which it is asked.
contextual tools
Contextual perspective is a specific view of human development. In contextual perspective, a person is seen as one and the same as the social context.
A contextual statement provide general information on a given subject.
Contextual tabs and menus appear when an object is selected.
Antonym, Synonym, Inference and definition are the different types of contextual.
Use of 'contextual' in a sentence: What dress one wears is contextual as it depends on certain occasions that one wears a particular type of dress.
Understanding the contextual factors is important when analyzing a situation. The meaning of a word can change depending on its contextual use in a sentence.
The multi contextual approach is to view one problem from a number of contexts.
Contextual analysis involves examining a situation, text, or piece of data within its broader context to understand its meaning and significance. It considers the influences, interconnections, and factors that shape the subject being analyzed. This approach helps to uncover hidden meanings, insights, and implications that may not be immediately apparent.
If someone mentions contextual tab, they are talking about Microsoft Office Word 2007. In that program, a contextual tab is a tab along the top that only appears when you have selected a certain piece of material. For example, if you click on a table, or a picture, a contextual tab appears. It is a different color that the rest of the tabs.
