Explain how classical conditioning may create the associated (indirect) effect of emotions on attraction
What will be an ideal response?
Answers should contain 3 elements:
1) Classical conditioning occurs when a neutral stimulus begins to evoke the same response as another stimulus because they are paired with each other.
2) When an individual is repeatedly paired with a stimulus that evokes a positive (negative) response, the individual will eventually also begin to evoke a positive (negative) response because of classical conditioning.
3) Conscious awareness of the association between stimuli is not necessary.
