As a child, Juan always enjoyed Sunday outings with his grandparents. Juan rarely felt happier than when he got into his grandpa
rents' car and pulled away from his house. At the time, his grandmother loved to listen to one particular singer on the radio. Although this all happened more than 20 years ago, whenever Juan hears a song by that musician, he gets a warm feeling as he is reminded of those Sundays. _________ best explains this phenomenon.
Classical conditioning first studied and illustrated by Ivan Pavlov(Russian Psychologist) that arises learning when a conditioned stimulus is combined with an unconditioned stimulus. <em>It exemplifies the learning through association which is an outcome of pairing or linking of two stimuli in order to produce a new learned response in an individual. The given passage reflects this process(classical conditioning) as Juan affiliates the song to his childhood days that results in a warm emotional response from him. Thus, it displays classical conditioning. </em>
