Evaluative conditioning (EC) refers to a change in liking of a conditioned stimulus (CS) subsequent to its repeated pairing with a valent stimulus (US). Two studies that bring new …
In this paper, we outline the predominant theoretical perspectives on evaluative conditioning (EC)—the changes in liking that are due to the pairing of stimuli—identify their weaknesses …

Evaluative conditioning (EC), the change in the evaluation of a neutral “conditioned” stimulus (CS) that is due to its pairing with a liked or disliked “unconditioned” stimulus (US; …
