please select the best answer from the choices provided

t
f

Explanation:

Analyze the definition of conditioning

Conditioning (specifically associative learning/classical conditioning) occurs when an organism learns to associate two stimuli or events that do not necessarily go together naturally beforehand, so that one event comes to predict the occurrence of the other. The statement claims it occurs when two events that "usually go together" become associated, which is incorrect because conditioning is the process of forming a new association between events that were previously unrelated (such as a neutral bell and food).

Evaluate the truth value

The statement is false because conditioning involves learning associations between events that do not naturally or usually go together initially.

• T
