When an alcoholic is given a mild electric shock and asked to smell the alcohol repeatedly to form an association between the two then this form of treatment is known as:

Aversive Conditioning

The correct answer is Option (2) → Aversive Conditioning

Aversive conditioning is a behavioral therapy technique used to create an unpleasant association with an undesirable behavior, in this case, alcohol consumption. By pairing the smell of alcohol with a mild electric shock, the therapist aims to condition the individual to associate the smell of alcohol with an aversive stimulus, thereby reducing the desire to consume alcohol.
