Counter Conditioning sandbox: Counter Conditioning ...

Definition

Counter Conditioning is when an unwanted behavior or response to a stimulus is conditioned into a wanted behavior or response by associating positive actions with the stimulus. Ex. When training a dog, a person would create a positive response by petting or calming the dog, when the dog reacts anxiously or nervously to a stimulus. Therefore this will associate the positive response with the stimulus.^[1] It is a common treatment for aggression, fears, and phobias.
