Topic 4.2
Why might someone who was once stung by a bee panic when they hear buzzing even if there are no bees around?
Fear of buzzing sounds is an instinctual human trait.
Buzzing noises naturally cause panic regardless of previous experiences with bees.
The reaction could be due to cognitive-behavioral factors rather than classical conditioning.
The buzzing sound has become a conditioned stimulus creating fear.
