◉ "During this phase, the target colors included colors all across the
blue-green continuum. The response options were always a focal blue
and a focal green.". Answer: So when looking at the graph choices,
you need to choose the one where there is a continuum because
baboons did have some responses to it
◉ If the researchers monitored the cortical activity of the baboons as
they viewed the color patches, they would most likely find increased
activity in the:
A.occipital cortex.
B.temporal cortex.
C.somatosensory cortex.
D.motor cortex.. Answer: A. Occipital lobe is where vision
information is done
◉ Which schedule of reinforcement is used in the color-matching
task?
A.Fixed ratio
,B.Variable ratio
C.Fixed interval
D.Variable interval
passage: When a correct response was produced, the subject received
a banana chip. When an incorrect response was produced, an aversive
procedure was introduced—the screen became black and there was a
20-second delay before the experiment continued.. Answer: A. The
passage states that the subjects received a banana chip every time they
responded correctly, which is an example of a fixed ratio schedule of
reinforcement.
◉ The description of assimilation patterns in the passage (final
paragraph) suggests that there is geographic variation in which pair of
concepts?
A.Social status and roles
B.Social and cultural capital
C.Cultural values and norms
D.Material and symbolic culture
Passage: Variation regarding how immigrants adopt the local
traditions and behavioral standards in a region can lead to distinct
geographic patterns of assimilation.. Answer: assimilation is all about
conforming to what the new culture's norms. This goes along with C.
,◉ Which historical factor primarily accounts for the projected
increase in the population aged 65 and older in the United States?
A.The increased immigration rate since the 1950s
B.The increased fertility rate after World War II
C.The sexual revolution of the 1960s and 1970s
D.The relative deprivation of the Great Depression. Answer: BABY
BOOM :)
B.
◉ To explain the demographic dynamics in the passage, a conflict
theorist is most likely to consider the relationship among which
factors?
A.Age, medicalization, and the illness experience
B.Generational status, social solidarity, and the welfare state
C.Age, social isolation, and networks of social support
D.Generational status, political power, and resource allocation.
Answer: Conflict= power; D.
A- social constructivism
B- functionalism
C- symbolic interactionism (far stretch)
, ◉ The aging of the U.S. population is most likely to increase:
A.the dependency ratio.
B.the social gradient in health.
C.the life course perspective.
D.the intersectionality of medicine.. Answer: A. dependency ratio is
when there are more elderly or super young people relying on other
people who are working
◉ Which finding best supports the linguistic relativity hypothesis?
A.All languages have a word for "up" and a word for "down."
B.Humans are better at learning words for primary colors than for
secondary colors.
C.Some languages do not have words for "right" and "left."
D.Humans are better at distinguishing colors for which their language
has a name.. Answer: D. The linguistic relativity hypothesis says that
people distinguish things better when they understand it from their
language. this correlates with D.
◉ source monitoring errors. Answer: misidentifying the origins of our
knowledge.
Because the old names had a chance to become a part of your
memory, you may confuse them with famous names in that you might
recognize them (since you've already heard them once). For the new
