    UCS = the car accident

    UCR = anxiety (shaken up; tenses up)

    CS = brake lights

    CR = anxiety about brake lights

    Explanation:

    In classical conditioning, a new behavior is learned through the pairing of a strong stimulus with a previously neutral stimulus. UCS stands for unconditioned stimulus, UCR for unconditioned response, CS for conditioned stimulus, and CR for conditioned response.

    In the passage, the UCR car accident becomes associate with a neutral stimulus, brake lights. Before the accident, brake lights did not cause any tensing up in Emily; they merely meant the car in front of her was slowing down. Because of the accident, brake lights took on a new meaning and began to cause her UCR anxiety. Now, a new behavior has been conditioned. CS brake lights have become a synonym for accident, causing CR anxiety.
