What Is Extinction Learning?

Extinction learning is as basically, you first learn that a tone or a cue predict some aversive stimulus. You can also learn with the repeated exposure of that stimulus or tone. And these memories, this memory, does not erase the fear. They actually coexist. But it provides a way for the animal or the person to overcome that fear. So understanding what's happening in the brain with this type of overcoming fear learning is very relevant for people who have pitas and petous eits.
