Counting the number of lever presses made to receive food would be a measure of operant conditioning, not classical conditioning. Classical conditioning involves pairing a neutral stimulus (such as a bell tone) with an unconditioned stimulus (such as food) to elicit a conditioned response (such as saliva secretion or blinking). In operant conditioning, behavior is strengthened or weakened based on the consequences (such as receiving food) that follow it.
