उत्तर

Ramesh is being treated using Aversive conditioning. It refers to repeated association of undesired response with an aversive consequence. With repeated pairings of the image of the drug and the pain of the shock, the drug becomes aversive as the pain of the shock is associated with it and the person will give up the drug.
