Chris,Paul :
Let me make one thing crystal clear.My original post focused on Juan Williams'
apparent Islamaphobia.It was Chris who introduced Fox.
Anyway,it would seem(according to classical conditioning) that the contract
would be a UCS and not a UCR as stated by Chris.After all a contract
Juan Williams ,a commentator on NPR,has been fired for stating that whenever he
sees individuals in Islamic attire especially on a plane,he shivers.
PPlease help me delineate the UCS,CS,UCR,CR in this particular situation.

I would regard this situation as operant behavior rather than respondent.
The money is a consequence (although the behavior is not well defined).

primarily on genetic endowment.
