A simple reflex action is an automatic, involuntary response to a stimulus that involves a direct pathway through the spinal cord, such as the knee-jerk reflex. In contrast, a conditioned reflex action is a learned response that occurs when a neutral stimulus becomes associated with an unconditioned stimulus, as seen in Pavlov's experiments with dogs.
