The vignette detailed in the question stem and "white coat syndrome" are both examples of classical conditioning. In classical conditioning, a reflexive response that is normally elicited by an unconditioned stimulus becomes evocable by a conditioned stimulus that was formerly neutral. Pavlov's dogs represent a commonly cited example of classical conditioning. In this experiment, ringing a bell (conditioned stimulus) while presenting food (unconditioned stimulus) eventually produced salivation (natural response) in the dogs to the sound of the bell alone without the presence of food. Incorrect answers: Answer 1: This is an example of positive reinforcement, a form of operant conditioning. Answer 2: This is an example of punishment, a form of operant conditioning. Answer 3: This is an example of negative reinforcement, a form of operant conditioning. Answer 4: This is an example of habituation, a form of simple learning.
