Case Study: Robin

Robin has really struggled to socialize with people in recent weeks. Though she was very outgoing in her past, Robin has always hated conflict. In fact, every time she encounters conflict, she finds herself shaking and unable to speak. Recently, after a few conflicts with random people at work that evoked these shaking and inability to speak episodes, she found herself shaking and unable to speak when engaged in a conversation with anyone. Robin knows that this is the source of her new fear of socializing, but she can’t seem to stop this reaction every time she is around people in a social setting.

What concept of behaviorism can explain this new development in Robin’s behavior? Use detailed terminology to explain how both of these situations listed above relate to this concept. How could issues with generalization and discrimination exacerbate or help in this situation? With respect to the concept listed above, how can Robin utilize this concept to help lower her fear of socializing if she finds that it is getting out of control? Again, use detailed terminology to describe this process.
