A behavior or a "conditioned response" forms from a positive unconditioned stimulus, when this unconditioned stimulus is paired with a neutral stimulus, we will then correlate the neutral stimulus with said unconditioned stimulus since it's a positive thing that we care about. We will then automatically respond even if the unconditioned stimulus isn't present!

This concept still applies today and is actually used as a way to treat individuals with PTSD. The way this works is a patient with PTSD is moderately exposed to stimuli that would produce fear into the patient who will then have a relaxation technique paired with the stimuli they fear.

Yes! Classical Conditioning is used to treat and better understand certain disorders, it is used in the classroom to associate positivity with learning experiences, it is used in advertising to create a positive associate with a product or brand, and it can be used in pet training!

For something seemingly simple it could get complicated in the sense that you may want specific stimuli introduced to the subject yet there's limited control to outside factors that may influence an outcome.

A form of learning through unconscious association. When a neutral stimulus is paired with an unconditioned stimulus (brings you positivity) in which elicits a natural response, through repetition, that natural response will occur automatically in the presence of the neutral stimulus even when the unconditioned stimulus is not present.
