Identify the key concept in the question: 'classical conditioning' as a method to explain learned behavior.
Recall the main behavioral learning theorists and their contributions: B. F. Skinner is known for operant conditioning, Jean Piaget for cognitive development, Albert Bandura for social learning theory, and Ivan Pavlov for classical conditioning.
Understand that classical conditioning involves learning through association, where a neutral stimulus becomes associated with an unconditioned stimulus to elicit a conditioned response.
