A predictable response to specific stimuli that, through repetition, has become spontaneous.

Comments:

Conditioned Responses were first officially recognized and documented by the Russian priest Pavlov in and around 1889, in his famous dog experiments.

Conditioned Response differs from Habitual Behavior in that Conditioned Response is limited to responses from stimuli.

Conditioned Response differs from Momentary Conditioning in that Conditioned Response is done for such a prolonged period of time that the response becomes automatic.

A Conditioned Response can be used against the opponent by using Reactionary Anticipation and Reactionary Set-up.

Conditioned Responses are commonly  brought about by Unanticipated Variables against an opponent.

Example(s):

Flinching when someone attempts to punch you demonstrates a Conditioned Response that should be overcome.
