The personal fable is the adolescent's belief that he or she is highly special and unlike anyone else who has ever walked the earth. Colloquially, these individuals are known as "special snowflakes." In other words, the adolescent thinks that since others are so obviously fascinated by him (adolescent egocentrism), he must be a unique individual.
Unfortunately, the belief can have serious consequences.
In particular, the personal fable can cause a tween or teen to believe that nothing bad could possibly happen to someone as exceptional as herself. In other words, since she's so special, she must be invulnerable.
Some research has shown that belief in the personal fable and one's invulnerability is directly connected to common adolescent risk-taking behaviors, such as promiscuous or unprotected sex, use of alcohol or illicit drugs, as well as physically dangerous acts, such as driving without a license or driving recklessly or while intoxicated.
Belief in the personal fable should not be confused with having high self-esteem. Tweens or teens with low self-esteem usually still hold a version of the personal fable.

Answer:
c. classical conditioning
Explanation:
In psychology, the term classical conditioning refers to a form of learning in which a stimulus is paired with another one to create a learned behavior.
The first stimulus creates a natural response by itself and it's called the unconditioned stimulus that creates an unconditioned response. However, this stimulus is paired to another one (conditioned stimulus) and the same response that appeared naturally at first starts appearing when the new stimulus appears (conditioned response).
In this example, Ashley is on an elevator and <u>she gets trapped inside, this situation obviously creates a response of fear on her (unconditioned response).</u> However, <u>now Ashley refuses to ride on any elevator because she is afraid.</u> We can see that <u>this response has become a conditioned response in the presence of any elevators</u> and therefore this is an example of classical conditioning learning.
