I think these may be contrasting terms: through "action" or the opposite, - through "association" - (SEE DEFINITION BELOW)

***ASSOCIATION***
Negative Dimension
General or specific, impressions, images or symbols, which are selected from, the myriad of stored experience and cognition in the memory, and compared automatically or selectively, to the sensory experience or Present-time Intellection, of any given present circumstance, as identification, classification, implication and context.


CONDITIONING
Volitional Response
Automatic response as ****action or association based upon past experience****, which dictates thought or behavior in the present, as distinguished from: Volitional Response to any given present state or circumstance based upon the dynamics of a current situation. Automatic sensory response and association which is learned from the experience of conditions of any given circumstance, which controls the instantaneous and automatic response of the person to sensory stimulation, and produces patterns of repetitive activity, thinking and speech.
