Lernverknüpfung

English translation: learned association

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
German term or phrase:Lernverknüpfung
English translation:learned association
Entered by: Susan Welsh

German to English translations [PRO]
Social Sciences - Psychology / emotion regulation, attention
German term or phrase: Lernverknüpfung
Hierbei werden Furchtrepräsentationen, also assoziative Netzwerke aus Imaginationen oder maladaptiver Kognitionen (z.B. «Ich verliere die Kontrolle!», «Ich werde verrückt!») [Lang, 1977] aktiviert und entgegen dem Vermeidungsverhalten durch eine konträre und anhaltende Bewältigungserfahrung korrigiert (z.B. «Ich verliere nicht die Kontrolle»). Dabei handelt es sich nach Foa und McNally [1996] weniger um ein Überschreiben bisheriger Furchtrepräsentationen als um die Entstehung neuer **Lernverknüpfungen.**

I can't figure out whether Lernverknüpfung should be translated as learning/learned links/connections.

Thanks in advance!

learned association
Explanation:
This seems to be the standard term in the literature (NB not "link" or "connection") - see, for example, the following links (all academic papers, to match the source):

"a conditioned Pavlovian fear response that depended upon a learned association"
(https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2966824/)

"the learned association between CS and US was still present after extinction"
(http://www.indiana.edu/~p1013447/dictionary/extinct.htm)

and to connect this to the German:

"Classical conditioning is an example of a learned association"
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_(psychology))

which seems, to me, very similar to this:

"Für die Konditionierung (Lernverknüpfung) gibt es 4 verschiedene Möglichkeiten:"
(https://www.hundeschuhle.de/2018/12/05/clicker-markerwort/)

@Asker - all the info about dog-training had me foxed (for a suitably animal-based metaphor!) too, until I realised that the basic psychology under discussion was largely the same!

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks Jennifer, very helpful. (I found the dog-training schools too, but couldn't figure out how the term would be used in English. I'm more of a "cat person.")
