Michelle G. Craske on Conditioning - Dictionary of Arguments
Slater I 29 Conditioning/Craske: Craske (2003)(1) (…) details (…) features associated with classical conditioning and its likely role in the development of fears and phobias. Craske Thesis: (…) she suggests that conditioning depends on vulnerability factors such as negative affectivity and a threat-based style of regulating negative affect, preferential attention to potential threat stimuli, a physiological state of preparedness for threat stimuli, and avoidant responding to potential threats. These characteristics seem to converge and begin to suggest why some individuals are more easily conditioned than others. >Conditioning/Psychological theories, Cf. >Conditioning/Watson. 1. Craske, M.
