When Loftus and Palmer asked observers of a filmed car accident about how fast the vehicles were going when they "smashed" into
each other, the observers developed memories of the accident that:a. Omitted some of the most painful aspects of the event b. Were more accurate than the memories of observers who had not immediately questioned about what they saw
c. Were influenced by whether or not Loftus and Palmer identified themselves as police officers
d. Portrayed the cars as traveling faster than they really were.
D). Portrayed the cars as traveling faster than they really were.
Explanation:
As per the question, the observers who developed the memories of the accident which 'portrayed the cars as travelling faster than they actually were'. They presented the events more seriously than it had been in actual because they would like to <u>convey a conscious impression about the 'seriousness and gravity' of the accident that was being filmed in order to justify the 'seriousness' stereotype associated with the term 'accident'</u>. Thus, they have constructed their experience/observation into a memory by giving it a more expanded and serious form than it actually was. Therefore, <u>option D</u> is the correct answer.
Shelley's <em>Frankenstein </em>is important because of the ethical dimensions of technology and its irony between science and creationism. Society feared technology back then and Shelley wrote an ironic story about a scientist who uses technology to build a terrorizing monster. The correct answer is obviously D.
