Acquisition, Extinction and Associated Response Patterns
Acquisition
Process of strengthening a CR (Salivation) through repeated pairings of NS (Bell) to the US (Food).
• A more intense US (Chocolate) produces a stronger and faster conditioning than a less intense
US (Fruits).
• A more intense NS (Loud bell) produces a stronger and faster conditioning than a less intense
one.
• The maximum amount of conditioning that can take place in a particular situation is known as
the asymptote of conditioning
