Question

When describing her theory of development, Candice says, “The basic idea is that I take a stimulus that at first has no effect on an individual. Then I pair that stimulus with a second stimulus that does elicit some response. After the two have been paired together a few times, I test to see if the initial stimulus now elicits a response similar to the one elicited by the second stimulus.” Given this description, Candice would be best classified as a(n) _____ conditioning theorist.?

Answer 1
