The correct answer for: When john was young he ate old chinese food and became ill. now every time he walks past the local chinese restaurant the aroma makes his stomach turn and feels ill. identify the conditioned stimulus. Is:c) aroma.
Explanation:
First of all to understand this answer we need to analyze the options and the context. we already know that John has a conditioned behavior for Chinese food. So, we just have o analyze the context to understand which stimuli are the ones triggering his response. The text says every time he walks past the local Chinese restaurant the aroma makes his stomach turn and feels ill. Now the conditioned behavior is to feel ill. But the trigger is the aroma because the text says: "the aroma makes his stomach turn" He only associated the smell.
Aroma is a smell which in most cases is a pleasant smell but in this case it is referring to the old Chinese food. Every time he walks past the Chinese restaurant he is reminded about that smell.</span>
