Classical conditioning involves establishing a connection between two otherwise unlinked stimulations via repetition, eventually linking the stimulus so that the action happens when the stimulus occurs. This is different than operant conditioning, conditioning based upon reinforcement. This differs from classical conditioning because there is no ?middle man? for stimulus connection; the behavior is reinforced, not linked through a stimulus. Still different from the two prior is observational learning, which requires only that the individual see an action and mirror that action.
