what is a conditioned response, and how do cognitive psychologists explain classical conditioning?
The term conditioned emotional response (CER) can refer to a specific learned behavior or a procedure commonly used in classical or Pavlovian conditioning research. It may also be called conditioned suppression or conditioned fear response (CFR). It is an emotional response that results from classical conditioning, usually from the association of a relatively neutral stimulus with a painful or fear-inducing unconditional stimulus.
