Answer:

His anger is the result of the conditioning and learning

Step-by-step explanation:

Behaviorism is the theory that has been introduced by John B Watson. It is a highly influenced school of psychology. Behaviorism tells that consciousness is not definable and not use able concepts. Watson thinks that it is fresh and a new start in psychology. It is the natural, pure and objective science in psychology.

Here Jody who is receiving counseling sessions with a therapist is most likely predisposed to his anger is the result of the conditioning and the learning.
