trace conditioning      

Explanation:

Trace conditioning: In psychology, the term trace conditioning was first introduced by Ivan Pavlov, and is defined as a form of classical conditioning which encompasses the process in which the conditioned stimulus or CS and unconditioned stimulus or UCS are being presented or displayed individually after a particular time interval between both of them.

In other words, in trace conditioning, the unconditioned stimulus and the conditioned stimulus are being separated with respect to time through trace interval.
