Answer:
A) Katherine should dislike Amy more
Explanation:
In psychology, the "self-evaluation maintenance model" is also denoted as SME, and is described as a model related to behavior which aims at the process that involves the way other person's performance influences or impacts the evaluation or perception of the "self". This model signifies "how" the other individual's performance tends to impact one's "self-evaluation" in either a negative or a positive way.
In the question above, the given statement signifies that " Katherine should dislike Amy more".
None of these conclusions is valid.
- The first one implies that people either think that their employer should cover part of the health insurance costs (as said in the original sentence), or they think that the employer should pay 100%. This is not correct because there are other possible opinions people can have, like thinking that the employer shouldn't pay for anything, for example.
- The second conclusion is invalid for the same reason: it implies that people can only either think that the employer should pay a large part, or that the employer shouldn't pay anything. It is not considering other options.
- The third conclusion does not work either because it is referring to what people think about <em>the amount </em>of the costs themselves, whereas the original topic was <em>how</em> they are paid for.
Answer:
Psychologists should focus on observable behaviors only
Explanation:
B. F. Skinner is best known for his contribution to psychology by discovering the operant conditioning theory. B. F. Skinner is one of the famous behaviorists and psychologists of his time. Therefore, he used to believe that all behaviors led by an organism including human beings, animals, etc are learned and hence it can be possible for people to determine the inner characteristics based on the organism's outer behavior.
B. F. Skinner criticizes the psychoanalytic and functionalist approach to psychology and believed that every psychologist should focus more on observable behaviors rather than any inner conflicts, or unconscious mind.
