Jackie plays professional basketball. Once before an important game, she placed her wedding ring on a chain, hung it around her

Explanation:

It is an example of superstitious behavior that is resulting from accidental reinforcement. The accidental reinforcer occurs after an act that may unintentionally strengthen the likelihood of the occurrence of that act. Superstitious behavior is often the result of accidental reinforcement  

<u>For example: </u>

A golfer may be lean as nears the hole. Such learning followed the past by the ball going into the hole (reinforcer) so even though leaning has no causal effects on whether the ball goes in, the accidental contingent relationship between leaning and ball being holed leads to reinforcement of leaning also called adventitious reinforcer.

What are the two main types of audiences one would encounter when giving a speech?
andrew11 [14]

Answer: uninformed audience and hostile audience

Explanation:

Uninformed audience

Ate those people who don't have much information on your topic so it is your job to ensure that you capture their interest right from the beginning so that they can start to see what you are coming with and probably pay attention to it.

You need to convince them from the beginning so that they can be with you all the way if possible.

In advance you need to find out what information they already have so that you don't end up bogging them.

Hostile audience

These are the individuals who disagree with you from the beginning up to the end because they have a negative feeling or attitude towards the topic and they are hard to convince because their mind are already made up.

These are the ones who will keep making negative remarks as you speak.

They believe they know better on the topic.
