A concept with a long history and many shades of meaning. Commonly, learning is understood to be a slow change of behavior induced by experience. Habituation, conditioning, stimulus-response association, and adaptation are all forms of learning. More generally, it is a change in capacity or disposition to behave resulting from experience, and that leads to a behavior being added to an organism’s repertoire.
