Answer:

This is an example of extinction.

Explanation:

It is very common to realize that it is not so simple to create a new habit and, at the same time, how it can be complicated to break an old habit. In behavioral psychology, we understand operant behavior as that which operates in the environment and transforms it, that is, brings to the organism, to the person, a given consequence. Which is why a behavior holds - or is extinct, stops existing - when the consequences change.

The case shown in the above question is an example of extinction. That's because Molly introduced behavior into her dog, but then worked to get that behavior abandoned. This behavioral abandonment is a call for extinction.
