Information processing in older adults shows a bias toward positive versus negative information.

<h3>Explain positive versus negative information.</h3>
  • By combining the interpretation of a statement's truth value with its state of events, or "situation," one might infer information about the circumstance.
  • It is positive when it permits a legitimate conclusion about the situation's nature, and it is negative when it permits a legitimate inference merely about what the situation is not.
  • A cognitive prejudice known as the negativity bias causes negative occurrences to have a greater psychological impact than happy ones.
  • Even when negative and good occurrences are of equal size, negativity bias still exists, making us more sensitive to negative events.
  • There is a bias toward positive information vs negative information in how older persons perceive information.

frozen [14]

Nuclear is a zero-emission clean energy source.

It generates power through fission, which is the process of splitting uranium atoms to produce energy. The heat released by fission is used to create steam that spins a turbine to generate electricity without the harmful byproducts emitted by fossil fuels. It also keeps the air clean by removing thousands of tons of harmful air pollutants each year that contribute to acid rain, smog, lung cancer and cardiovascular disease.

"Had we been as free from all sins as gluttony and drunkenness, we might have been canonized for Saints. But our President would
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Smith meant that the president's sins were too serious for him to be seen as a saint, even if forgiven. However, the colonists' sins were less serious sins and could easily be atoned for.

Explanation:

Smith was criticizing the president, showing that he was a vile man with heavy and grave sins against the people, against the nation and against God. Even with forgiveness, the president was already corrupted and would never be seen as someone free from sin, he would never be accepted into Sainthood, because sins made him a lost and unsaved case.

The colonists, in spite of presenting sins, could be absolved of their faults and become pure, manageable and holy men, because their sins were light and less degrading.

Tresset [83]
