Psychological factors
- what behaviors lead to overeating?
- how does the person think about food and eating?
Social factors
- does the person's family have set times that they eat, and what emphasis do they place on food at family holidays?
- does the person have a group of friends who always eat together?
Explanation:
The "biopsychosocial model of health and illness" was proposed by George L. Engel & John Romano and is described as a framework that describes that the interactions among the social, biological, and psychological factors explain the outcome, cause, and manifestation of disease and wellness. However, in the given model the three main domains are social, psychological, and biological factors.
You have just expressed to the group your concern over the impending deadline facing the group. Which of the following responses would be classified as "irrelevant" using Sieburg and Larson's categories of confirming and disconfirming responses?
A. "Don't worry about it. It'll get done."
B. "Are there any other items of new business?"
C. "Yeah, that's a problem, but I'm really worried about getting this meeting over with."
D. "The fact that our deadline is approaching worries you?"
Answer:
B). 'Are there any other items of new business?'
Explanation:
As per the question, option B i.e. 'Are there any other items of new business?' exemplifies the response that could be categorized as 'irrelevant' using Sieburg and Larson's categories of confirming as well as dis-confirming responses. This response would be irrelevant to the context as it has no affiliation to their concern over the approaching deadline while the other responses would assist in expression of the concerns and encouragement to group in order to help them meet the deadline. Thus, option B is the correct answer.
Final answer:
Option B, 'Are there any other items of new business?' is an irrelevant response to a concern about an impending deadline as it disregards the topic and shifts the conversation elsewhere.
Explanation:
In Sieburg and Larson's categories of confirming and disconfirming responses, the response that would be classified as irrelevant to the concern over the impending deadline is option B: "Are there any other items of new business?" This response is irrelevant because it shifts the focus of the conversation away from the expressed concern about the deadline and does not directly address or acknowledge the issue that was raised. This response does not acknowledge or address the concern expressed about the impending deadline, making it irrelevant.
By comparison, options A, C, and D, while differing in their level of empathy and acknowledgement, still relate to the concern of the deadline. Option A attempts to reassure, albeit dismissively; option C recognizes the deadline but highlights a different concern; and option D seeks clarification and reflects the concern back to the speaker, demonstrating an attempt to understand.
_____ are key features associated with the diagnosis of schizotypal personality disorder. Follower, submissive, requires reassurance and approval Orderly, perfectionist, controlling, and detail oriented Eccentric, magical thinking, quirky Dramatic, emotional, attention seeking
The key features for diagnosing schizotypal personality disorder are eccentric behavior, odd beliefs, and quirky speech, aligning with DSM criteria. Such individuals may display traits that resemble high psychoticism, including nonconformity and unusual perceptual experiences.
Explanation:The key features associated with the diagnosis of schizotypal personality disorder are eccentric behaviors, odd beliefs or magical thinking, and quirky manners of speaking or dressing. Unlike other options mentioned, these symptoms align with the clinical criteria for schizotypal personality disorder as per diagnostic manuals, such as the DSM or ICD.
Indeed, according to the American Psychological Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual on Mental Disorders (DSM), individuals with schizotypal personality disorder exhibit a range of peculiar behaviors and thoughts, which may include superstitious beliefs, unusual perceptual experiences, and odd speech patterns that can make it hard for them to establish relationships.
Moreover, referencing Eysenck's theory, those high on psychoticism may exhibit traits such as independence and nonconformity, which can be seen in schizotypal personality disorder, though this dimension is not as diagnostic as the specific symptoms listed in the DSM.
Rebecca is applying to graduate school and has several items she must turn in with her application, including letters of recommendation, GRE scores, transcripts, and a personal statement.
Which of these is likely the BEST indicator of her potential for success in graduate school?
Answer:
academic transcripts.
Explanation:
An academic transcript can be defined as an academic records of the courses taken by the student, the grades received in it, achievements by the student in previous school.
The indicator of Rebecca's success in graduation is revealed by her academic transcript, that is GRE scores. GRE (Graduate Record Examination) is an admission test just like SAT and ACT. GRE test is comparatively difficult from other entrance tests. Thus, the GRE transcript of Rebecca indicates her success in graduate school.
So, the correct answer is an academic transcript.
The best indicator of Rebecca's potential for success in graduate school among her application materials would likely be the letters of recommendation from professors and academic advisors, as these provide insights into her personal traits and academic capabilities from established professionals in the field.
When considering which item in Rebecca's application materials would be the BEST indicator of her potential for success in graduate school, it would likely be the letters of recommendation she submits. Professors and academic advisors who write these letters can provide unique insights into Rebecca's abilities, character, and work ethic. These professionals are members of the academic community and understand the culture and expectations of graduate programs. They are capable of judging Rebecca's potential for success not only on academic performance but also on the qualities such as motivation, dedication to research, and resilience which are essential for the rigorous demands of graduate school.
Furthermore, graduate schools value this personal testimony from respected sources because, while GRE scores and transcripts provide quantifiable data about a student's prior academic performance, they do not convey personal characteristics or predict how a student will contribute to the program's community. The personal statement is also pivotal as it showcases Rebecca's personal aspirations, motivations, and fit with the program, but the recommendations offer a third-party validation that can significantly bolster her application profile.

b. The situation today is better and the Middle east transports oil more frequently to the US and the trade deals have been stable.
c. The current issue and the attempted solutions are now different as the situation is only tense with Iran now and Saudi Arabia is a good ally now.
Final answer:
The 1970s energy crisis was driven by OPEC's oil embargo, leading to U.S. government action on energy conservation and the creation of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. Today, the focus has moved towards sustainability, renewable energy, and combating climate change. Comparatively, the scope of energy policy has expanded from immediate shortages to long-term environmental and economic considerations.
Explanation:
Understanding the 1970s Energy Crisis:
The 1970s energy crisis emerged primarily due to the geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, specifically the Yom Kippur War, which led to OPEC’s oil embargo, targeting nations that supported Israel. The embargo precipitated a surge in oil prices and triggered widespread fear of energy shortages. In response, the U.S. government implemented measures such as the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and encouraged energy conservation.
The Energy Situation Today:
Fast forward to the modern-day, the focus on energy has shifted towards sustainability and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Governments worldwide, including the U.S., are promoting renewable energy sources and investing in infrastructure to support electric vehicles and other green technologies.
Comparing the 1970s to the Present Day:
Comparing the energy landscape of the 1970s to today's situation reveals a shift from managing acute shortages and high prices of petroleum products to grappling with the long-term challenges of climate change and energy sustainability. Current policies reflect a broader scope, considering environmental impact alongside energy conservation and economic stability.
Frida is an employee of Green Recycled Products Company. A state statute protects Frida from Green's retaliation if Frida reports to state officials, or others, that Green is involved in unsafe or illegal activity. With respect to the employment-at-will doctrine, this is?
A. An example of the doctrine.
B. An exception based on contract theory.
C. An exception based on public theory.
D. An exception based on tort theory.
Answer: C. An exception based on public theory.
Explanation: The employment at will doctrine involves that an employer need not establish a reason or notice for dismissing an employee given that the motive or reason for dismissal is not illegal. However, there are some exceptions whereby termination of an employees contract might not be possible. Such as the scenario stated above, Frida has been protected from being sacked by a state statute which is also called exception based on public theory or policy which covers the employee for reporting unsafe or illegal company acts and issue relating to failure to pay salaries or workers compensation.

Explanation:
Natalie, an American student studying abroad in Taiwan, is at a restaurant when she sees a waitress drop a tray of drinks and then giggle. Natalie finds this reaction odd. This incident is not a sign that the waitress thinks mistakes are funny, but it is instead an example of cross-cultural differences, relayed by display rule;Display rules are a social group or culture's informal norms about how to appropriately express emotions
Answer:
Display rules
Explanation:
In psychology, the term display rules refers to the informal norms in a group or culture that tell them how to express their emotions in an appropriate manner. This rules indicate when, where and how it is appropriate to display these emotions.
These rules are learned by people of that culture in their early lives and they vary from culture to culture.
In this example, Natalie is American and she is studying abroad in Taiwan and she sees a waitress drop a tray of drinks and then giggle which is odd to Natalie. In Taiwan they don't think mistakes are funny but they learn to react this way when there's a mistake done, this is something done in this culture and therefore, since this is an example of cross-cultural differences, this is an example of display rules.

"Shawn decides to reject invitations to parties that will be held at night because he reads in the newspaper about the large number of robberies that take place in his neighborhood. However, the crime rate at Shawn's neighborhood has actually reduced in the last two years. Shawn's decision is based on"
Answer:
the availability heuristic.
Explanation:
"Shawn decides to reject invitations to parties that will be held at night because he reads in the newspaper about the large number of robberies that take place in his neighborhood. However, the crime rate at Shawn's neighborhood has actually reduced in the last two years. Shawn's decision is based on the availability heuristic.
The availability heuristic is a mental bias that occurs when an individual relies on the immediate information that comes to their mind in making decisions, The immediate information that comes to Shawn's mind when deciding about going to a night party is the newspaper publication about large numbers of robberies in the vicinity and he hinges his decisions based on this regardless of the fact that the crime rate has actually reduced since the publication of that newspaper. The newspaper publication presents an available heuristic.
Answer:
The correct answer is: The availability heuristic.
Explanation:
The availability heuristic is a cognitive bias and a error in cognition in which a person uses the immediate information he/she has when evaluating an specific situation, topic or decision.
For example, Sophie is deciding how to name her son. She really likes the name Jules. One day she goes out to the dentist and in the dentist office she hears that her dentists son is named Jules. After the dentist she then goes to the pharmacy to buy some medicines and she notices that the clerk is also named Jules!
She then decides that Jules is a very common name and decides to name her son John.
This is an example of the Availability Heuristic.
In this particular case, Shawn's decision is based on the same error.
Susan carefully rinses her mouth with an unpleasant-tasting mouthwash every day One day, Susan reads an article reporting credible dental research that suggests that mouthwash is completely ineffective and that mouthwash may even be related to tooth decay. The discomfort that Susan experiences in response to this article is calleda. insufficient justification.b. cognitive dissonance.c. self-discrepancy.d. self-justification.
Final answer:
Susan experiences cognitive dissonance, a psychological discomfort that occurs when her beliefs about the efficacy of mouthwash are challenged by credible research, leading to a conflict with her previous actions of regularly using it for dental health.
Explanation:
The discomfort Susan experiences after reading about the ineffectiveness of mouthwash is referred to as cognitive dissonance. This psychological discomfort arises when a person's beliefs, behaviors, or attitudes are inconsistent with one another, which challenges their positive self-perception. For example, someone who values health yet continues a harmful habit like smoking would experience cognitive dissonance. The tension created by this inconsistency motivates individuals to reduce the dissonance, possibly by changing their behavior or beliefs.
In Susan's case, using a mouthwash that she believed to be beneficial for her dental health, despite its unpleasant taste, created a consistency in her behaviors and beliefs that was congruent with a positive self-image of herself as proactive about her health. However, after reading credible research discrediting the efficacy of mouthwash, this belief is now in conflict with her previous actions. This conflict results in cognitive dissonance, which is uncomfortable and may lead her to change her behavior or beliefs regarding mouthwash use. Susan may choose to stop using the mouthwash or seek further evidence to align her actions with her beliefs.

According to Robert Merton’s strain theory, a bureaucrat or an unmotivated teacher would be considered ___________ because they follow the culturally approved means (i.e. get an education; find a job) but have given up on culturally approved goals of society (for example, material success).
Answer:
Ritualism.
Explanation:
The Strain Theory was developed by Robert Merton in 1938. The theory furthered the theory of Anomie by Emile Durkheim. The theory of strain is used to study sociology and criminology.
He divided the theory into five categories namely conformist, innovator, retreatist, ritualist, and rebel.
In the given case, a bureaucrat or unmotivated teacher is ritualistic. A ritualistic is the one who has accepted the fact that because of their position in the society, they can never attain their goal so instead of focusing on the goals, they started adjusting with the means. The teacher has done the same by accepting the means instead of going the wrong way.
So, the correct answer is Ritualism.
In Merton's strain theory, a bureaucrat or unmotivated teacher following conventions but abandoning larger societal goals is termed a 'ritualist'. They go through the motions of societal norms without belief in achieving broader goals.
Explanation:According to Robert Merton’s strain theory, a bureaucrat or an unmotivated teacher who follows the culturally approved means but has given up on the culturally approved goals of society, such as material success, would be considered a ritualist. This term implies that they are going through the motions of societal expectations without belief or hope in achieving the overarching goals. In this case, they adhere to the socially accepted behaviours and norms like getting an education and finding a job, even though they have given up on the wider perceived goals and values of society like material success.

So Okonkwo encouraged the boys to sit with him in his obi, and he told them stories of the land-masculine stories of violence and bloodshed. Nwoye knew that it was right to be masculine and to be violent, but somehow he still preferred the stories that his mother used to tell, and which she no doubt told to her younger children--stories of the tortoise and his wily ways, and of the bird eneke-nti-oba who challenged the whole world to a wrestling contest and was finally thrown by the cat. What traditions could be later challenged by imperialism?
Answer:
The Igbo tradition.
Explanation:
This excerpt was from the book "Things fall apart" by Chinua Achebe.
It is a book that talks about the Igbo tradition in the South Eastern Nigeria. The author writes about a great warrior and hunter Okonkwo and his wrestling and farming prowess.
Okonkwo does not believe in weakness of any kind and it was a thing of shame to him that he had a son, Nwoye who was a coward and weak. Nwoye was not a warrior like his father and refused to participate in violence of any sort.
From the excerpt above, Okonkwo is seen telling his children stories of war and violent blood-letting but Nwoye is uncomfortable by all such stories and prefers to listen to stories told by his mother about the tortoise and his many adventures.
This wonderful Igbo tradition was later challenged by imperialism as the English men came to the twon and started recruiting young men into their schools and teaching them their religion. The introduction of the English men to the Igbo tradition changed a lot of things. It changed the people's religion, education and mode of dressing.
Final answer:
The traditions potentially challenged by imperialism in Chinua Achebe's 'Things Fall Apart' include the valorization of violence and masculinity, the importance of folktales and storytelling, as well as the significance of cultural practices and artworks. Achebe's work highlights the disruption of these traditions by colonialism and expresses a broader theme of cultural dispossession shared by colonized societies worldwide.
Explanation:
In Things Fall Apart, traditions that could later be challenged by imperialism include the emphasis on violence and masculinity depicted in Okonkwo's stories, contrasting with Nwoye's preference for his mother's folktales. These traditions represent a cultural identity and values that face a threat from colonial influences.
Chinua Achebe's acknowledgement of the legacy of colonialism and importance of indigenous history further highlights how cultural narratives and historic memories are disrupted or marginalized by imperial forces, as seen in the experiences shared by characters in his novel and by actual colonized societies.
The discussion of the Igbo's cultural practices, such as the significance of body marks, provides a context for understanding the deep roots of these traditions that colonialism could challenge. Additionally, the art of the Igbo, including the intricate bronze plaques, indicates a rich tradition in visual storytelling and craftsmanship that may also be endangered or undervalued in the face of foreign dominance.
Achebe's narrative which, though fictional, illustrates the impacts of colonialism on African societies, resonates with similar experiences globally, such as the colonization of Korea by Japan. This shared experience of dispossession and the struggles of maintaining a cultural heritage during and after the colonial era can manifest in the preservation of stories and history, much like the ones shared by Achebe's characters and his own critical reflection on indigenous histories.
Lastly, the significance of masculinity in Igbo society and the lifelong endeavor to achieve it, as discussed by Daniel Jordan Smith, reflects an aspect of tradition that can come into conflict with colonial ideologies and roles imposed upon the colonized. Such impositions can influence and potentially alter the indigenous definitions and expressions of gender roles.

Explanation:
emonstrating the use of
Rose is using social referencing to read her father's relaxed body language and determine the safety of interacting with an unfamiliar adult. This ability to read emotional cues helps her adapt her behavior, demonstrating early social understanding and language learning.
Three-year-old Rose is demonstrating a behavior known as social referencing. This is a process whereby children look to their parents or caregivers for cues on how to react in unfamiliar or uncertain situations. When her father displayed a relaxed body language and smiled calmly, it provided Rose with the contextual information she needed to understand that the situation was safe and she could relax and respond to the new adult.
This showcases Rose's growing social understanding and her ability to read emotional cues from her father to guide her behavior.
Moreover, children like Rose, even at a very young age, show an awareness of the views of others which can be reflected in how they change their sentence structures and vocabulary depending on whom they are addressing. Such social adaptations indicate an early developmental milestone where the child is not only busy learning language but also gaining a sense of others' perceptions and adapting accordingly.
