She felt a rush of excitement at the thought of what she could do with $1000. Now Lacey finds that whenever she hears a telephone ring, she feels a surge of excitement. In this example, the rush of excitement that Lacey felt when she heard she had won the gift certificate is _________.
a. the unconditioned stimulus
b. the unconditioned response
c. the conditioned stimulus
d. the conditioned response

Respuesta :

Answer:

The unconditioned stimulus

Explanation:

To begin with, stimulus (in this context), is a situation, agent or event that makes humans respond physically. Lacey's case is unconditioned because the response to the call that she won the gift certificate was automatic. In other words, the call was a stimulus that triggered an automatic and natural excitement in her.
