Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Frank replacing smoking with taking a walk after dinner is an example of response substitution. He is substituting his smoking behavior with a different behavior (walking) in response to the same stimulus (finishing dinner). This can help to break the smoking habit by replacing it with a new, healthier habit. The other options are not as applicable to this scenario - behavioral contracting involves setting specific goals and rewarding oneself for meeting them, stimulus control involves manipulating the environment to reduce the likelihood of engaging in the undesired behavior, and self-deception involves convincing oneself that a negative behavior is actually positive or harmless.
