Brenda is watching a movie at home but the sound on her television is rather low. She asks her brother to turn up the sound. After he increases the volume only 5 decibels, Brenda says "OK. That's good. Thank you." Brenda's detection of this slight increase in volume demonstrates
Answer:
just-noticeable difference
Explanation:
Based on the information provide can be said that in this scenario Brenda's detection of this slight increase in volume demonstrates the just-noticeable difference or JND. In the context of psychophysics, this term refers to the amount in which something needs to be changed in order for the individual in question to be able to notice or detect the difference, at least 50% of the time in which they are exposed to it. Which is the what is being demonstrated by Brenda in this scenario.
Answer:
Just noticeable difference
Explanation:
The just noticeable difference is the difference in threshold, that is the minimum level of stimulation that a person can detect 50 percent of the time
The absolute threshold for sound, for example, would be the lowest volume level that a person could detect. The just noticeable difference would be the smallest change in volume that a person could sense. Brenda increasing the volume only 5 decibels is the just noticeable difference that Brenda is able to detect
In the context of reinforcement theory, with _____, consequences follow a behavior after different times, some shorter and some longer, that vary around a specified average time.
Answer:
Variable interval
Explanation:
In a variable interval, the researcher will not give the reinforcement on a regular schedule.
The purpose of this type of reinforcement is to condition the subjects to adopt a certain behavior even after the reinforcement is taken away in the future.
Example:
Let's say you want to teach your son to put away his toy after he's done playing it.
In order to encourage him, you give him his favorite candy as soon as he's putting away his toy, but you do not give the candy every time he does it. Sometimes you give it, sometimes you don't.
When this happen, your son will start to develop an understanding that there is always a possibility for candy every time he put away his toy.
This will make him more likely to put the toy away and wouldn't sulk even after he does not receive the candy.

Mark knows that he is an excellent liar but he doesn't feel very good about himself in general. Mark is likely to score _____ on measures of self-esteem and _____ on measures of self-efficacy.
Answer:
High on self esteem
High on self efficacy
Explanation:
self-esteem is used to describe a person's overall sense of self-worth or personal value. In other words, how much you appreciate and like yourself while Self-efficacy reflects confidence in the ability to exert control over one's own motivation, behavior, and social environment. Mark will score high on both because he seems to be convinced about how excellent he is at lying.
Answer:
high, high
Explanation:
Mark knows that he is an excellent liar but he doesn't feel very good about himself in general. Mark is likely to score high on measures of self-esteem and high on measures of self-efficacy. Mark is confident and aware of his abilities, this is an indication of a high self esteem and his believe in his capacity to lie effectively is an indication of high self-efficacy in that regards.
Kim is a 4-year-old who has just been in an accident and has sustained damage to an area of the brain that is specialized for a particular skill. Her doctor tells her parents that she is lucky to be so young; she should recover her ability in this domain. Her doctor is counting on Kim's brain to:______.a. become rewired as a different area takes over for the damaged area.
b. create new neurons to replace the damaged ones.
c. direct her skeletal and muscular system to work harder at the skill.
d. regenerate brain tissue.
Answer: Option (B). create new neurons to replace the damaged ones.
Explanation: Kim is a 4-year-old who has just been in an accident and has sustained damage to an area of the brain that is specialized for a particular skill. Her doctor tells her parents that she is lucky to be so young; she should recover her ability in this domain. Her doctor is counting on Kim's brain to create new neurons to replace the damaged ones.
Her doctor believes that because Kim is young, Kim has an opportunity of her brain to create a new neurons to replace the damaged ones.
Kim's brain is expected to become rewired, where different areas take over functions for the damaged parts, through a process known as neural plasticity. This is especially effective in young children like Kim, who are more adaptable following brain injuries. The human brain's ability to reorganize itself allows it to compensate for lost functions, although it does not regenerate tissue or create new neurons to replace the lost ones.
Explanation:The doctor is counting on Kim's brain to become rewired as a different area takes over for the damaged area. This phenomenon is known as neural plasticity or brain plasticity, which refers to the brain's ability to reorganize itself by forming new neural connections throughout life. In young children, like Kim, this ability is especially pronounced, allowing them to recover from brain injuries more effectively than adults. Neural plasticity enables parts of the brain not originally associated with certain functions to adapt and take over roles they were not initially designed for.
While the other options might seem plausible, current understanding of neuroscience suggests that the human brain does not regenerate tissue in the same way some other organs do (option d), nor does it create new neurons to replace ones that are lost (option b) in most of its regions. Moreover, directing the skeletal and muscular system to work harder at the skill (option c) does not address the neural basis of skill acquisition and recovery.
In recent years, the consumption of orange juice in the United States has fallen but the price of orange juice has risen. This is because the supply of orange juice has ________ and the demand for orange juice has ________.
Answer:
Decreased; also decreased
Explanation:
The theory of supply and demand explains the relationship between the sellers of a particular goods or services and the buyers. The theory describes what affect the relationship amid the availability of a particular product and the need (or demand) for that product on its price.
According to the law, low supply and high demand increase the price of the goods and vice versa, and when there is a sharp decrease in demand for any product, there will be a decrease in price of that particular product.
Going back to the question we can conclude using this law that there can only be a fall in price of orange juice when there is a decrease in the amount of supply and also a corresponding decrease in the it's level of demand.

Reyna and her husband are starting a family and decide to move closer to either her or his own family. Reyna’s family lives on the West Coast, but her husband’s family lives on the East Coast. If Reyna and her husband decide to move to the West Coast, what would their decision be considered in the context of family?
Answer:
The decision in the context of the family is they want to live close to reyna family
Explanation:
Since Reyna family lives on the west coast,while her husband family lives on the east coast. Since they have decided to live on the west coast while raising there family , the decision of the family in this context is that they want to be close to reyna family.
Final answer:
Reyna and her husband's choice to move to the West Coast and live with or near her family would likely be considered a matrilocal residence, which is tied to matrilineal descent systems. In contrast, patrilocal residence involves living with the groom's family and is typical in patrilineal descent systems.
Explanation:
In the context of family and marriage, Reyna and her husband's decision to move to the West Coast would be considered based on postmarital residence rules. These rules dictate where a newly married couple will establish their household. If they choose to live with or near Reyna's family, it would likely fall under a matrilocal residence pattern, common in societies practicing matrilineal descent. This is where the bride remains within her family group, and their children belong to her lineage. Conversely, living with or near the husband's family would be patrilocal residence, more prevalent in societies with patrilineal descent, where the bride moves in with the groom's family. In the U.S., the trend is more towards neolocal residence, where the couple establishes a separate, independent household. Economic factors and familial support needs often influence the choice of residence.
In an experimental design, the______variable is manipulated by the researcher, with the goal of eliciting a significant response. Here, this was accomplished by pairing words and syllables according to one of three word types. Then researchers measured the______variable by asking subjects to assess______for each syllable. 1a. independent.b. dependent.2 a. dependent.b. independent.3 a. pleasantness rating.b. part of speech.
Answer:
1)a-independent
2) a-dependent
3)a-pleasantness rating
Explanation:
All of these are processes in a Research Methodology
Research methodology is the specific procedures or techniques used to identify, select, process, and analyze information about a topic.
In an experimental study, the independent variable is manipulated to observe its effect on the dependent variable, which is measured by the researcher. In the provided scenario, the independent variable is manipulated by pairing words and syllables, while the pleasantness rating is the dependent variable being measured.
Explanation:In the context of an experimental design, the variable that is manipulated by the researcher is known as the independent variable. The purpose of manipulating the independent variable is to study its effects on another variable, which is known as the dependent variable. In the given scenario, pairing words and syllables according to one of three word types represents the manipulation of the independent variable. Researchers then measure the dependent variable by asking subjects to assess pleasantness rating for each syllable. This measure is an attempt to quantify the response or effect of the independent variable's manipulation on the test subjects' perceptions.

"NIMBY is" Select one: a. a U.N. organization in Geneva that directs the medical use of radioactive isotopes. b. the deciding factor in the approval of the Yucca Mountain disposal site in Nevada. c. the U.S. federal agency that oversees nuclear power facilities. d. a publicly perceived risk of siting a toxic or nuclear waste disposal facility near their homes.
Answer: d. a publicly perceived risk of siting a toxic or nuclear waste disposal facility near their homes.
Explanation:
"NIMBY" literally means "Not In My Back Yard". It is a pejorative to describe the reaction of a group of people, generally, homeowners, who refuse to build a facility that they consider to be dangerous for themselves, a property, their community, or even their lifestyle.
This attitude is viewed in a bad way since people generally refuse to let the construction be carried out for personal reasons, they even agree that the construction should be carried out in another distant place.
An example of this is when the government wants to build an airport, people generally do not want to build them near their homes because of the increased noise it generates, but they always agree that more airports be built.

Miriam is testing a concept that she learned in her child development class. She takes ten pennies to the preschool where she is doing her internship. She shows the children the pennies and asks them to count them. Then she makes two parallel rows of five pennies in each row that are both evenly spaced so that the rows are in alignment. Then, as the children watch, she spreads the bottom row out by increasing the distance between the pennies. She asks the children which row contains more pennies. They all respond that the bottom row has more. This illustrates that the children are unable to solve ___________ problems.
Answer:
C. Conservation
Explanation:
Conservation is a stage that occurs in the concrete operational stage. In this phenomenon, the conservation is to understand the quantity stay the same even if the appearance has been changed of the objects. If technical we try to understand it is about to understand the redistributing the materials.
The distribution of the object does not affect by the number, mass, and length and its volume. Around seven-year, children understand the conservation of whether the appearance has been changed. Five-year children do not develop conservation so they think there is a difference in the quantity of water if the appearance has been changed.

They are conditioning their team to adapt and accept new methods in place of the old ones.
Consistent bite mark evidence alone is not sufficient for a conviction, but it does provide ________________ evidence that may be helpful in building a case.
Answer:
Circumstantial.
Explanation:
As per the question, the 'consistent bite marks' alone would not be able to ensure the conviction of the guilty but it, however, serves as 'circumstantial evidence' because it was collected directly from the crime scene that could prove fruitful in developing the case further. Such evidence turn quite helpful in supporting the truth or substantiating the claims but to validate the conviction, more factual evidence would be required to prove the accused to be guilty of the crime. Therefore, 'circumstantial' is the correct answer.
Which is one reason that sociologist cite to explain why men and women are delaying marriage until their mid-to-late twenties?
Answer:
1. Many young people place education and career higher than marriage on their list of priorities.
Explanation:
Sociologist cited that the reason young men and women get married late is simply because most of them place more importance to their education and career.
They want to attain a certain level of education and also have a career first before marriage.
The delay of marriages can be attributed to shifts in social norms and values, women's increased independence and career success, and economic factors delaying adulthood milestones.
Explanation:There are several reasons that sociologists cite to explain why men and women are delaying marriage until their mid-to-late twenties. One reason is the shift in social norms and values. Recent surveys reveal a significant number of youth expressing acceptance of unmarried females having children, and that waiting until marriage for sex, while a nice idea, may not be realistic. This could contribute to the delay of marriages.
Secondly, women today are achieving more success in their education and career paths, and this could lead to them feeling more independent and prepared to live their adult lives without spouses or domestic partners compared to women of previous generations. The pressure to marry is still present, but seems countered by the women's own satisfaction and security with their unmarried status.
Finally, the economic factors cannot be ignored. The traditional milestones of adulthood are taking longer for Millennials to attain due to factors such as the lack of adequate employment opportunities for recent college graduates, causing them to postpone milestones such as marriage.

Psychology majors at the state college consist of 40% males and 60% females. The psychology department is conducting a survey of its majors and obtains a sample by randomly selecting students so there will be 20 males and 30 females from the list of psychology majors. What kind of sampling is used in this example?
Answer:
Proportionate stratified random sampling
Explanation:
Proportionate stratification is a type of stratified random sampling . With proportionate stratification, the sample size of each stratum is proportionate to the population size of the stratum. This means that each stratum has the same sampling fraction .
Answer: proportionate stratified random sampling
Explanation: Porportionate stratified random sampling is a sampling technique in which subgroups also called stratums of a given sample or population are stratified, that is adequately represented within the entire population. In this sampling technique, the assigned size of each stratum is proportionate to the population size of the strata with respect to the size of the entire population. Hence, employs a uniform sampling fraction in deciding sample size across each stratum.
In the scenario above, population size is 40% male and 60% female, sample size is 20 male and 30 female meaning that the same sample fraction was adopted across both stratum with the sample size proportionate to the population size of the strata.
