Spontaneous recovery refers to the reappearance of a conditioned response after a rest period or period of time has passed. This is what is happening when Milo salivates again in response to the bell after a night of rest. It is important to note that the response is weaker than before and may require additional conditioning to become as strong as it was originally.
