If a tone that regularly signals food triggers a salivation response, then a light that becomes associated with that tone may also begin to trigger salivation. This best illustrates

A) latent learning.
B) the law of effect.
C) higher-order conditioning.
D) a variable-ratio schedule.

Higher-order conditioning is a term in Classical Conditioning in which a neutral stimulus (which does not create a response on its own) is paired with a conditioned stimulus (which creates a conditioned response) in order to be associated with the conditioned stimulus' conditioned response and thus create this response on its own.

In this case, the tone is the conditioned stimulus since it creates the conditioned response of salivation. The light is the neutral stimulus but once it is associated with the tone, it will also trigger the salivation.

If a tone that regularly signals food triggers a salivation response, then a light that becomes associated with that tone may also begin to trigger salivation. This best illustrates A) latent learning. B) the law of effect. C) higher-order conditioning. D) a variable-ratio schedule.
