A conditioned stimulus is repeatedly presented and always followed by an unconditioned stimulus. Will the animal necessarily develop a conditioned response? Why or why not?
A. It depends. The animal may or may not develop a conditioned response, depending on whether or not the CS is similar to the UCS.
B. It depends. The animal may or may not develop a conditioned response, depending on whether or not the species is biologically prepared to develop that type of association.
C. Yes, the animal must develop a conditioned response because of the principle of temporal contiguity.
D. Yes, the animal must develop a conditioned response because of the principle of spontaneous recovery.
