Classical conditioning is a learned behavior where previously neutral response elicits an unconditioned response and become a conditioned stimulus. For example, food is a biological unconditional stimuli which produces unconditional response i.e Salivation. When food is paired with a whistle, it elicits salivation. When whistle is shown alone, it induces salivation. At this point the neutral stimulus has become conditioned stimulus and is producing unconditioned response.
In higher order conditioning, a previously neutral stimulus when paired with conditioned stimulus produces the same response as conditioned stimulus. For example, a whistle acts as conditioned stimuli and produces an unconditioned response. When whistle is paired with light, it produces salivation. Next, light alone can produce salvation.
