Assume you are working with a student who really likes McDonald’s. When you are out in the community with this student and you drive past a McDonald’s, the student always begins to whine about going to McDonald’s. If you say, "No," the student begins to cry. If you still say, "No," the student begins to kick and scream and whack his head on the car window. Assume you want to break this inappropriate chain of behaviors by removing the initial SD and substituting an alternative SD. What would be one way of doing so?
Answer:
avoid the routes that include a McDonald's and instead drive by Wendy's
Explanation:
Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that one way of doing this would be to avoid the routes that include a McDonald's. Instead drive by an alternative SD such as Wendy's and when passing near the Wendy's ask the student if they would like to eat at Wendy's. This would recondition the child's inappropriate chain of behaviors and substitute a new one with Wendy's.
Riley ate too much chocolate cake during his birthday party and was sick all night. If classical conditioning occurred and he associated the cake with being sick, then when Riley sees cake today, he will most likely______.
Answer:
Not want to eat it and will be turned off by the look of the cake and the smell of it.
Explanation:
In classical conditioning, an individual associates an stimulus with an specific response. This association makes the individual have this response in presence of the stimulus, which means that this response is a learned behavior based on previous experiences.
In this example, Riley ate too much chocolate cake (stimulus) and was sick all night (response). Now, if classical conditioned occurred and he associated the cake with being sick, it means that this response will be triggered in presence of the stimulus now so if Riley sees cake today he will likely remember how it got him sick last time and he will not want to eat it and will be turned off by the look of the cake and the smell of it.
Because of the cost of medical school, poorer students are less likely to become doctors than higher status students. Which theorists would be more likely to examine how this trend impacts social stratification in the U.S.?
Answer: Conflict theorists
Explanation: Theorists who study the theory of conflict see society as a kind battlefield, where different classes fight each other, where there is injustice, where the stronger rule over the weaker, where there is a constant social conflict between those classes, and that conflict constantly leads to some changes. In fact, this inequality creates a struggle for social classes, and that struggle again leads to change. It is clear that conflict theorists are close to communism if not communists, since Karl Marx is considered to be the creator of this theory. Due to the existence of social classes, there are inequality and injustice, and therefore a conflict between classes.
That is why, for example, in society it is less likely that poorer children go to study medicine and the like. If one of the poor shows a talent for medicine, according to conflict theory, he will be suppressed for class struggle, and someone from a wealthier family will be favoured.
Wesley is in a movie theater with no windows—the only light is low illumination from the emergency lights on the floor. Which photoreceptors will be most useful to Wesley as he attempts to leave the theater?
In a movie theater with no windows and low illumination from emergency lights on the floor, Wesley's ability to navigate and find his way out will heavily rely on his photoreceptors. Photoreceptors are specialized cells in the retina of the eye that detect and respond to light stimuli, allowing us to perceive visual information.
There are two main types of photoreceptors in the human eye: rods and cones. Rods are highly sensitive to light but do not distinguish colors, while cones are less sensitive to light but enable color vision. Given the low illumination in the theater, Wesley's rods will be the most useful photoreceptors in this situation.
Rods are primarily responsible for vision in dim or low-light conditions, as they are more sensitive to light than cones. They contain a pigment called rhodopsin, which allows them to detect even small amounts of light. This sensitivity enables rods to function effectively in low-light environments, such as a dark movie theater.

Wesley's rod photoreceptors will be most useful as he attempts to leave the dimly lit movie theater. Rods are specialized for low-light vision and are very sensitive to light. This allows them to function effectively in dark conditions.
Wesley is in a movie theater with no windows—the only light is low illumination from the emergency lights on the floor. To see in such a dimly lit environment, Wesley's rod photoreceptors will be most useful. Rods are specialized for low-light vision and are more sensitive to light than cones. They can detect even a single photon of light, making them essential for navigating in low-light conditions like a dark movie theater. This ability to see in the dark, also known as dark adaptation, takes time as rods need to recover from light exposure.10. In a psychology class debate on the trait perspective on personality, you need to take the opposing view and rebut its positive aspects. Which of the following criticisms of the trait perspective can you cite?
Answer:
People do not act or behave with predictable consistency
Explanation:
One of the general criticisms of the trait perspective is that people do not act or behave with predictable consistency. This is based on the idea that a person might act differently as predicted or expected of them given the circumstances, their personal experiences, their mental and cognitive state at that point and other such factors. Hence, the trait perspective might not be able to provide an accurate description based on habitual patterns of behavior or action or thoughts.
Much as Charles Darwin's evolutionary theory stresses a continuing progression of life forms, the evolutionary theory proposed by sociologists stresses the movement of ______ in a definite direction. reproduction
Answer:
society.
Explanation:
The evolutionary theory of Charles Darwin inspired many sociologist to suggest that society is itself an organism which evolves from a primitive stage to a modern one. L.H Morgan suggests three stages of evolution which are savagery, barbarism, and civilization by which society moves from simple to more complex form. British sociologist Herbert Spencer applied Darwin's theory of survival of the fittest to society and according to him western societies are better adaptive to the changing times and therefore they are surviving and evolving.

Answer:
tell Maqsood the sentences all refer to kite-flying.
Explanation:
Levels of processing theory was identified by Robert Lockhart and Fergus Craik in the year 1972. It focuses on the theories of memories that suggests separate stages for working, sensory and long-term memory.
It gives importance to depth of the processing that is involved in our memory, and predicts deeper information that is processed and a memory trace will last longer.
Thus according to the levels-of-processing theory, Jon should tell Maqsood that the sentences all refer to kite-flying.
Which of the following might be considered typical disadvantages faced by a third-party candidate?
A. Name recognition of the party
B. Name location on the ballot
C. Majority rule
D. Incumbent advantage
The following might be considered typical disadvantages faced by a third-party candidate:
Name location on the ballot Majority rule Incumbent advantageAnswer: Option B, C, and D
Explanation:
Over time, many third parties appeared, but due to two major obstacles, third parties were not able to select many candidates. First of all, most American elections are held in a "winner-take everything" system, in which only the candidate or party with the most votes in the poll receives seats.
There are rarely independent or external candidates without brand awareness or organizational support of a large party. Second, the two main sites often integrate third-party platforms with other. Voters who identify with a third party often vote for the main party candidate who has accepted the issue, because larger parties are more likely to succeed. So, lack in majority ruling.
The third party is an American political party other than the two main parties (Republican Party and Democratic Party). They rarely succeed elections in the US, but they often influence national politics, paying focus to issues before neglected by major parties.

Jane tends to focus excessively on details and gets caught up in her work for hours because she is preoccupied with perfecting every project before she turns it in. She needs structure and rules to be comfortable in any situation. She can get very stuck in her ways and doesn’t like it when things change. She does not like art or creative expression, viewing it as a waste of time and effort. She gets angry when things don’t go her way and she feels very nervous when she is faced with new situations and people, which frequently overwhelm her. She keeps to herself and has a hard time forming new relationships or meeting new people. She is often viewed by her coworkers as being full of herself and argumentative. She thinks these people just don’t like her and they are out to get her by making her look bad.What combination of traits does Jane likely have? Jane is: Group of answer choices
Answer:
From a Big 5 personality theory perspective, Jane is likely to:
Be high on neuroticism - she easily gets angy when things don't go her way.Be hign on conscientiousness - she is a perfectionist, focuses on detail, and worries about doing her tasks well.Be low on opennes - she does not like creative expression.Be low on agreeableness - her coworkers described Jane as arrogant and argumentative.Be low on extraversion - she has a hard time meeting new people.From a MBTI perspective, Janes is likely to be an INTJ: introverted, intuitive, a thinker and a judger.
Intjs are argumentative, perfectionists, extremely introverted, smart, preoccupied about work, achievements and status, and a bit disagreable.
Final answer:
Jane likely has a combination of obsessive-compulsive and paranoid personality traits, including a need for perfectionism and high standards that affect her productivity and relationships, alongside mistrust in others and discomfort with new situations and people.
Explanation:
Jane appears to exhibit traits that suggest a combination of perfectionism and a strong need for order and rules, which could indicate obsessive-compulsive personality traits (not to be confused with obsessive-compulsive disorder). Her tendency to focus excessively on details, the need for structure, rigid adherence to ways of doing things, and a lack of flexibility are characteristic of someone who is conscientious, orderly, and a perfectionist. Her difficulty in forming relationships, mistrust of others, propensity to feel targeted by others, and emotional withdrawal suggest she may have features aligned with paranoid personality traits.
The combination of her traits may relate to an excessive need to do everything 'right' and an inflexibly high standard which interferes with productivity, a fear of errors leading to strict and controlling behavior, and poor expression of emotions. Moreover, she does not enjoy creative expression, gets angry easily, and is overwhelmed by new situations, indicating inflexibility and discomfort with uncertainty or change.

Erik Erikson called the people he interviewed who were in their 90s and reflected awareness of the interdependence of the generations and the human experience social witnesses.
Explanation:Erik Erikson called the people he interviewed who were in their 90s and reflected awareness of the interdependence of the generations and the human experience social witnesses. In his theory of psychosocial development, Erikson's task at the stage of late adulthood is called integrity versus despair. People who feel satisfied with their lives and have a sense of integrity can look back on their accomplishments with few regrets.
Thus, human experience involves social witnesses who observe and share collective narratives. These witnesses contribute to the tapestry of shared stories, fostering empathy, understanding, and connection within society by acknowledging and validating the diverse range of experiences that shape the human condition.

A personality test reveals that Jacqueline is antagonistic, ruthless, and suspicious, while Melissa is acquiescent, soft-hearted, and trusting. It appears that Jacqueline and Melissa have scored at opposite ends of the _____ dimension of the five-factor model.
a. conscientiousness
b. openness to experience
c. extraversion
d. agreeableness
Answer:
d. agreeableness
Explanation:
The Five-Factor Model of personality is a model of the structure of personality according to which human personality can be described using five broad dimensions: Extroversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, and Openness.
Extroversion: Outgoing, socially confident behavior. Extroverts are sociable, talkative and enjoy being the center of attention. Introverts are more quiet and prefer to be on their own.Agreeableness: Individuals who score highly on agreeableness are friendly and co-operative, they are trusting of others and are more altruistic. People who score low on this dimension are less concerned with pleasing other people or making friends, they tend to be more suspicious and are less charitable. Conscientiousness: People who are conscientious are more aware of their actions and the consequences of their behavior than people who are unconscientious. They feel a sense of responsibility towards other people and are careful with their duties. People who score low on this dimension are less careful and are less concerned about tidiness and punctuality. Neuroticism: People with high neuroticism are persistent worriers. They are fearful and often feel anxious, over-thinking their problems focusing on the negative aspects of them. They tend to become frustrated and angry if things don't go as they wish. People who score low are less preoccupied and are able to remain more calm under stressful situations. Openness: Willingness to try new activities. People with higher levels of openness enjoy artistic and cultural experiences and are more open to unfamiliar cultures and customs. People with low levels of openness are wary of uncertainty and the unknown and feel uncomfortable in unfamiliar situations and prefer familiar environments.In this example, Jacqueline is antagonistic, ruthless and suspicious while Melissa is soft-hearted and trusting. These are characteristics related to the factor of agreeableness, thus they most likely scored at opposite ends of the agreeableness dimension of the five-factor model.
