• the word \associate\ should be changed to the words \discriminate between.\
• the word

epeatedly\ should be changed to the word
ever.\

<reasoning>

Analyze the target sentence

Using the Operant Conditioning and Classical Conditioning knowledge points
The target sentence states: "In operant conditioning, organisms learn to associate automatic events that repeatedly happen together."

Evaluate the mechanism of conditioning

Using the Classical Conditioning knowledge point

• Classical conditioning involves learning associations between two stimuli (events) that occur together automatically/involuntarily (e.g., a bell and food leading to salivation).
• Operant conditioning involves learning associations between a voluntary behavior and its consequences (reinforcement or punishment).

Identify the required correction

Using the Classical Conditioning knowledge point
To make the sentence true, the word "operant" must be changed to "classical" because associating automatic, repeatedly co-occurring events is the definition of classical conditioning.
