Pavlov's work was important because it demonstrated that the processes of learning could be studied scientifically, and that the principles of conditioning were applicable to humans as well. One of the primary ways people learn fears is when something they're originally not afraid of gets paired with some negative experience. Some researchers discredit this idea saying pre-exposure to a situation that is safe should protect a person against a later phobia. Some associations made by the brain may have destructive effects, like the development of prejudices not based on fact. But just because something is learned doesn't mean that it can't be unlearned.
