Conditioned Stimulus

Explanation:

In Psychology, through conditioned stimulus, behavioral processes of people or their reflexive response becomes predictable due to the reinforcement. They are alarmed unconsciously to their surrounding due to the impact of past experiences. It gets triggered each time the person is supposed to go through the same situation.

Example:

An individual who has symptoms of nausea due to eating seafood is conditioned to the same response each time he eats seafood. Thus it automatically triggers a response from the person irrespective of his choice.
