We use the term classical conditioning to describe one type of associative learning in which there is no contingency between response and reinforcer. This situation resembles most closely the experiment from Pavlov in the 1920s‚ where he trained his dogs to associate a bell ring with a food-reward (Ryle 1995).

If a coaster does not have enough kinetic energy to go up and around a loop or up a hill‚ then it will get stuck. Also‚ if the coaster carts don’t have enough space between them‚ they could
