You repeatedly pair a tone with food until a dog salivates to the sound of the tone. you then present the tone several times without the food until the dog no longer salivates when he hears it. presenting the tone several times without food is an example of.

The correct answer is Extinction.

Explanation:

The procedure of extinction can be understood as the phenomenon that occurs in either operant conditioning and classical conditioning in which certain conditioned responses stop occurring because the previously conditioned stimulus ceases to be presented with the unconditioned stimulus.

In this particular case, the tone (Previously conditioned stimulus) stops being presented with the food (unconditioned stimulus) until the dog no longer salivates (unconditioned response). This procedure is called Extinction.

Extinction

Explanation:

Classical conditioning is a process of learning by repeatedly pairing stimuli with a desired behavior.

However, sometimes this conditioned response can begin to fade, this process is called extinction and it usually happens when we present the conditioned stimulus without the presence of the unconditioned stimulus. This makes the pairing to stop happening and the behavior stops.

In this example, the food automatically triggers a behavior of salivation. Thus, the food would be the unconditioned stimulus. The tone is paired with the food (the Unconditioned stimulus), therefore, the tone is the conditioned stimulus that will create the conditioned behavior of the dog salivating in presence of it.

By presenting the tone without the food, we are presenting the conditioned stimulus without the unconditioned stimulus, thus this will make the dog to no longer salivate when he hears it, stopping the learned behavior to happen in the future. Therefore, this would be an example of extinction.
