One kind of learning is called “classical conditioning.“ This occurs when one event or stimulus is continuously followed by a reward or punishment. It is through classical conditioning that a ch
7、ild learns to associate his mothers face and voice with happiness and love, for he learns that this person provides food and comfort.
