Pavlov believed that associative learning occurs most readily when the biological strength of the US (unconditioned stimulus) is greater than that of the CS (conditioned stimulus). This is because the stronger the US, the more likely it is to produce a strong UR (unconditioned response), which can then be associated with the CS to produce a strong CR (conditioned response).
