他動詞[C/U] 両方
複数形: conditionings過去形: conditioned過去分詞: conditioned現在分詞: conditioning

This term carries a strong association with behavioral psychology, evoking the image of a repetitive loop where a trigger leads to an automatic response. It suggests a level of subconscious programming rather than conscious learning, implying that the subject has been molded by their environment or a trainer. In a physical or material sense, the word shifts toward the idea of optimization and preparation. It describes the act of bringing something to its ideal state, whether that is a muscle group ready for peak performance or a fabric treated for softness, emphasizing a transition from a raw state to a refined one.

Uncountable when referring to the general psychological process of behavioral modification. Countable when referring to specific training regimens or physical preparation programs.
