 * === Ivan Pavlov ===
 * Stimulus-response theory of classical conditioning
 * by pairing a neutral stimulus (NS) with an unconditioned stimulus (UCS) the organism can transfer the automatic response to the UCS to the neutral stimulus
 * NS (bell) + UCS (meat) leads to UCR (salivation) to UCS; over repeated pairings the NS (bell) becomes the CS (bell) as the organism learns to respond to the CS (bell) by salivating to it (now the CR)
 * introduction of discrimination training - learning to differentiate between stimuli presented and generalization - learning to respond the same way to similar stimuli
 * extinction can occur after repeated presentation of the CS without the UCS which leads to lack of response, but spontaneous recovery (sudden return of the conditioned response) shows that the learning is not completely extinguished
