Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In classical conditioning, the unconditioned stimulus (UCS) must be consistently paired with the conditioned stimulus (CS) in order to produce a conditioned response (CR). The UCS automatically triggers an unconditioned response (UCR), and through repeated pairing with the CS, the CS eventually becomes associated with the UCS and is able to elicit the same response even when presented alone. Pairing the UCS with the UCR or CS with the UCR would not lead to classical conditioning.
