Question

Counterconditioning involves pairing the previously neutral stimulus with a positive or desirable outcome, which can "un-do" the association of the neutral stimulus with the fearful response. Stimulus generalization occurs when a response is elicited by stimuli similar to the conditioned stimulus, while stimulus discrimination involves only responding to the specific conditioned stimulus. Spontaneous recovery involves the sudden reappearance of the conditioned response after extinction has occurred.
