conditioning a dog to drool at the sound of a bell.

Explanation:

Second - order conditioning occurs when a neutral stimulus becomes a conditioned stimulus by being paired with an already established conditioned stimulus. In the case of Mr. Harrison training Lilley, the psychology textbook is first made a conditioned stimulus (first - order conditioning). Then, by pairing the picture of John Watson with the textbook (the already established conditioned stimulus), the picture of John Watson becomes a conditioned stimulus through second - order conditioning.
Negative reinforcement is a concept in operant conditioning. Just drooling at the sight of a textbook after training is first - order conditioning. Using operant conditioning for good manners is about operant, not classical (and thus not second - order in the classical sense). Conditioning a dog to drool at a bell is first - order classical conditioning.

Answer:

Mr. Harrison trains Lilley to drool at the sight of a psychology textbook, he also shows her a picture of John Watson every time he shows her the textbook. Now she drools at the sight of John Watson.
