a) habituationb) stimulus generalizationc) extinctiond) backward conditioning

C) extinction

Explanation:

The term "extinction" in psychology refers to the process of disappearing a response from an individual's repertoire. In the responding paradigm, extinction occurs when a conditioned stimulus (CS) stops eliciting a particular response (CR). Thus, the conditioned reflex response may disappear if the conditioned stimulus is presented repeatedly without the presence of the unconditioned stimulus, causing the eliciting effect of SC to cease to exist. An example of this was the technique that Dominique's psychologist used to help Dominique abandon her fear of bridges. Gradually Dominique's psychologist motivated her to pass the bridges until her fear passed.
