There is no "fear conditioning"; rather, fear can become a conditioned response via Classical conditioning (Pavlov) or Operant Conditioning (B.F. Skinner).

Classical Conditioning in Everyday LifeOne of the great things about conditioning is that we can see it all around us. Here are some examples of classical conditioning that you may see:1. Conditioned Fear & Anxiety - many phobias that people experience are the results of conditioning.For Example - "fear of bridges" - fear of bridges can develop from many different sources. For example, while a child rides in a car over a dilapidated bridge, his father makes jokes about the bridge collapsing and all of them falling into the river below. The father finds this funny and so decides to do it whenever they cross the bridge. Years later, the child has grown up and now is afraid to drive over any bridge. In this case, the fear of one bridge generalized to all bridges which now evoke fear.2. Advertising - modern advertising strategies evolved from John Watson's use of conditioning.

They were all quite accomplished, both professionally and personally.
