Any Psychologist here?

I answered a question and earned a little, but asker didn't rate my answer, I wonder if my viewpoint is relevant?

the topic was movie violence in relation to classical conditioning,

A child exhibits a certain behavior like fear when presented a certain stimulus over and over again. The mind will be conditioned to respond to the stimulus when he experiences it repeatedly. Hence, behavior can be learned. A child might associate darkness as scary or dangerous after watching movies that depicts violence which always occurs at nighttime.

Hence the concepts made by psychologists imply that behavior can be learned and conditioned.
