In classical conditioning, the conditioned stimulus will trigger the conditioned response. It is also referred to as respondent conditioning.
A learned response elicited by a conditioned stimulus is known as a conditioned response. It is acquired through classical conditioning, where an initially neutral stimulus (conditioned stimulus) becomes associated with an unconditioned stimulus to elicit a specific response. Over time, the conditioned stimulus alone can trigger the conditioned response.
The purpose it to associate an unconditioned stimulus (ex: sound of a bell) to a conditioned stimulus (ex: food) in order to get a conditioned response (ex: salivation) every time the subject being conditioned is exposed to the unconditioned stimulus (ex: sound of a bell creates salivation).
The process that allows a second stimulus to cause the same response as the originally conditioned stimulus is called stimulus generalization. This occurs when similar stimuli to the conditioned stimulus also trigger the conditioned response.
This process is known as classical conditioning, where a neutral stimulus becomes associated with a response due to repeated pairing with another stimulus that naturally elicits that response. Over time, the neutral stimulus alone can trigger the response.
A stimulus activates sensory receptors in the body, such as on the skin or in the eyes, ears, nose, or mouth. These receptors then send signals through nerves to the brain, where the information is processed and interpreted, resulting in a sensory response.

Response is to stimuli as reaction is to trigger. A reaction is an action taken in response to a trigger or stimulus, showing a direct cause-and-effect relationship. Just as a response is elicited by a stimulus, a reaction is elicited by a trigger.
Relative refractory period
threshold stimulus
In Pavlov's original experiment, stimulus generalization occurred when dogs began to salivate not only in response to the specific bell sound that was paired with food but also to similar sounds, such as other bells or tones. This demonstrated that the dogs had learned to associate the conditioned stimulus (the bell) with the unconditioned stimulus (food) and could generalize that response to similar stimuli. As a result, any sound resembling the original bell could trigger a salivation response, highlighting the broader application of learned behaviors beyond specific cues.
Musical codes
A muscle fiber will not respond to a stimulus until that stimulus reaches the threshold level needed to trigger an action potential. This threshold level is the minimum amount of stimulus required to elicit a response from the muscle fiber.
An unconditioned response (UR) is a natural, automatic reaction to a stimulus that does not require prior learning or conditioning. It occurs in response to an unconditioned stimulus (US), which elicits the response without any previous experience. For example, when food (US) is presented to a dog, it salivates (UR) automatically. This concept is fundamental in classical conditioning, illustrating how certain stimuli can trigger innate responses.
Classical Conditioning -- That sound is the sound that you hear when you urinate, so your mind has paired that sound with the act of urinating... so when you you hear the sound your mind associates it with the action and thus your budy begins to experience the sensation.
