PSYCHOLOGY HELP

English
1 answer:
astraxan [27]3 years ago
3 0

This is a case of "negative reinforcement". The term was created by B.F. Skinner, and it is about not doing something in order to avoid suffering or pain (physical or psychological). A good example of negative reinforcement can be seen in the movie "A Clockwork Orange", directed by Stanley Kubrick. The main character goes to a correctional facility where he's forced to watch violent movies while experiencing an unimaginable sensation of nausea. The goal of the institution was to turn him into a non-violent individual by conditioning his brain to associate violence with feeling sick to his stomach. In fact, after such experiment he wasn't even able to enjoy Beethoven's music anymore, since it was played throughout the whole "therapeutic" movie sessions. In Herbie's case, he could no longer eat his daily chocolate chip cookies, since he didn't want to get nauseated again. It doesn't mean he would necessarily feel that way if he actually had the cookies, but he refused to eat them anyway, since he'd already been negatively reinforced not to eat them.

Do you think Utopians fear change? Why?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

What's Wemmick's "greenhouse"?
VladimirAG [237]

Letter D. Newgate prison. Wemmick works for Mr. Jaggers (a lawyer who defends criminals). So it makes sense to go to prison and "cultivate" the prisoners so they can hire him again as a lawyer when is needed, that is why he treats prison like a greenhouse (a place where things grow). It's a metaphor.

Discuss whether equality in hunter-gathering societies are of any relevance to 21st century society
ra1l [238]
I would say that equality in hunter-gatherer societies has a huge implication for the modern world.

The hunter-gatherer societies were the "original" societies, to which the humans evolved and the finding that the societies were much more egalitarian (both in terms of gender equality and social class equality) means that people cannot claim that inequality is somehow "natural" - it supports the need for equality in the modern world.
