Classical conditioning involves learning a totally new behavior through association.
It involves the linking of two stimuli together to produce a response that is newly learned by an animal or a human being.
The two stimuli are :
1.) Unconditional stimuli:
- It produces an unconditioned response in an organism.
- It means that the stimulus has produced a response that has not been learnt.
2.) Neutral Stimulus :
- It may be an object or a person.
- This stimulus doesn't produce a response until it is paired with an unconditioned stimulus.
In classical conditioning the unconditioned stimulus is associated with the neutral stimulus and becomes a conditioned stimulus.
At this point learning takes place and this makes classical conditioning referred to as a double action behaviour.

Classical Conditioning. By Saul McLeod, updated 2018. Classical conditioning (also known as Pavlovian conditioning) is learning through association and was discovered by Pavlov, a Russian physiologist. In simple terms two stimuli are linked together to produce a new learned response in a person or animal.
So it is called double action behavior.
