Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conditioned fear is a form of classical conditioning where a previously neutral stimulus becomes associated with fear due to its pairing with an aversive stimulus. In order for classical conditioning of fear to occur, a longer interval between the presentation of the conditioned stimulus (CS) and the unconditioned stimulus (UCS) is needed to allow for fear to develop. This is because fear is a more complex emotion than other forms of classical conditioning, such as conditioned salivation or motor responses.
