Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This scenario describes respondent thinking, which is a type of thought process that is triggered by a specific stimulus (in this case, the beach) and leads to automatic thoughts or mental images (in this case, visualizing a person in a bathing suit). Respondent thinking is involuntary and reflexive, as opposed to operant thinking, which is intentional and goal-oriented. Operant feelings and respondent feelings are not relevant to this scenario, as it only involves mental imagery and not emotional states.
