2. generalization
3. discrimination

5. spontaneous recovery
6. higher- order conditioning - 32operant conditioningincludes reinforcement and punishment
- 33reinforcementthe adding or taking away of a stimulus following a response, which increases the likelihood of that response being repeated
- 34punishmentthat adding or taking away a stimulus just following a response which decreases the likelihood of that response being repeated
