Participles are sometimes confused with verbs because they are made up of:

1) verb +  –ing form . This is called PRESENT PARTICIPLE and it has the function of an adjective (not a verb)

Example:  The singing bird is beautiful. The word “singing” modifies the noun “bird” and this sentence can be rewritten as “The bird that sings is beautiful.”

2) Verb+ ed / past participle form. This is called PAST PARTICIPLE and it has also the function of an adjective as it provides information or qualities of a noun.

Example: The wounded dog was crying all night. The word “wounded” modifies the noun “dog” and this sentence can be rewritten as “The dog which was wounded was crying all night”

mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Intelligent, industrious, warm, impulsive, critical, stubborn.

Explanation:

Primacy effect can be defined as the tendency to recall the first few options of the long list than the options at the last.

<u>In the primacy effect, the words at the beginning of the list are rehearsed and memorized more often than the later options which makes the person only able to recall the first few options from the long list.</u>

The way of primacy effect in which Tia will describe Mario to Nancy will be by <u>stating first the qualities of Tia as "intelligent, industrious, warm" </u>and <u>state negative qualities later in the long list "impulsive, critical, stubborn".</u> In this way, Nancy will be able to recall first the good qualities of Tia than the negative qualities according to the primacy effect.
