Here, you associated the brain (or the sight of something similar) to your very unpleasant experience in biology.
4) This one is another example of operant conditioning. Here, instead of being punished, you are offered a reinforcement in the form of a compliment. Because of this compliment, you decided to continue your haircut. Thus, the reinforcement successfully influenced your "behavior".
