    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The author suggests that the only distinction between a smoker and a non-smoker is the belief that smoking is a valid solution to certain situations or emotional reactions. Non-smokers, on the other hand, do not make this connection. This implies that the author believes that smoking is not a valid solution and that non-smokers have a different perspective on how to handle situations or emotions. Therefore, the statement "True" accurately reflects the author's viewpoint.

In this context, the correct answer suggests that thoughts have the ability to control physical behavior, indicating that top-down processing is the process that refers to this phenomenon. Bottom-up processing, on the other hand, involves the flow of information from sensory input to higher-level cognitive processes.
